Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Richard Watson Gilder The poet, philanthropist, humorist, man of affairs, never really yielded to one another, or gave up the field. All were ready and able on the instant, and their separate qualities were extraordinarily po tent in his eyes. These one could not call 'black' except as a symbol, but their intense darkness and light needed the use of terms more significant than exact, and such terms alone could give the impres sion of his luminous and richly drawn person.
