_The Westminster Gazette._ ‘The workmanship of these heart-breaking
little studies is, as we should expect from Mr. Gibson, honest and
exact. Their grim view of human destiny, its all-pervading greyness,
is presented with appropriate austerity; and this restraint and
detachment increase their vividness and force.... The beautiful
sonnets in the section called “Home” show that he, too, is capable
of delight.’

_The Spectator._ ‘Mr. Gibson’s skill is most admirable when we
consider that it is allied to poetic feeling of the utmost
simplicity and depth.’
