9. After reading the best of Mr. Robinson's work, it is interesting to
look up the comments of various admirers of it published on the occasion
of his fiftieth birthday, in the _New York Times_, December 21, 1919, or
the quotations from this article in _Poetry_, 15 ('20): 265, and to see
how far your judgment bears out these extravagant statements.

10. The influence of Robinson's work on younger American poets,
especially on Lindsay and Sandburg, makes an interesting study.
