This article presents an annotated list of various recently published American verse satires of representative native poets. Some of these works, considered here, are: "The Man Against the Sky," by Edwin Arlington Robinson; "General William Booth Enters Into Heaven and Other Poems," by Vachel Lindsay; "The Great Maze and the Heart of Youth," by Hermann Hagedorn; and "Script of the Sun," by Mabel Parker Huddleston. According to the author of this article, Robinson's present work contains dramatic monologues of which the keynote is sometimes good enough for English poet, Robert Browning.
