MYTHICAL MANDARIN'S OBSER- VATION IN FREE VERSE.
Christopher Morley, claiming that every mind has an "Orient of the Spirit" has set down in his volume Translations from the Chinces" this imaginary Mandarin's refections on American life and manners.<
The Froem gives as the unlocking key to this mandarínistic commentary on modern life:
There is, in each man's heart, Chinese writing-
A secret script, a cryptic languago; The strange idrographs of the spirit, Scribbled over or half erased By the swift stenography of daily life. No man can easily decipher this
cordiscript,
This blurred text corrupted by fears
and fullies; But now and then, Reading his own heart
(So little studied, auch fine reading
malter)
He sees fragments of rubric shine
through-
Old words of truth and trouble [Claminated, red and gold.
The study of this liddeo language Is what I call Translating from the Chinese.
The subtle contour of his stire is
