Masefield walted for genuine Inspiration. He said At the time of his appointment that he WIN not going to grind out poetry to suit any occasion, as hla predecessors had-th ecle- brate royal births, marriages and deaths.

Ho is a six-six-thirty in the winter and sits down to work.
He says of himself that he ran away to sea when he was a boy and later ran away to the arts. Now that he is "too old for roving" he puts his faith in his Imagination.
