Abstract
Thomas Sturge Moore wrote two essays upon Yeats. Better known perhaps than this one is his memoir published in English, 2:11 (Summer, 1939) 273–8, which contains Yeats’s celebrated remark that Florence Fair had been a “chalk egg” that he “had been sitting on for years”. The present piece is unpublished. A typescript and carbon are to be found among the Sturge Moore Papers in the University of London Library, (2/85 and 2/84 respectively). The text offered here is that of the top copy, as corrected by Sturge Moore, found in a binder of the A. D. Peters Literary Agency.
