Robert Bridges on whom the poet had relied to keep, treasure, and conceivably publish the poems after Hopkins`s death, believed that they must be printed, and was soon planning an edition with a short memoir. Delay was caused by his respect for the private nature of the letters, by his feeling that Hopkins`s melancholia should not be publicly exposed, and by fear that the public would not understand the peculiarities of the verse. He gradually introduced small groups of the poems into anthologies, but it was not until 1916 that he received the public encouragement for which he was waiting. The sensitive, handsome, and almost complete small edition, edited and largely designed by Bridges, was published at the end of 1918. DNB The second work contains the first appearance of Hopkins`s poems in book form (pp.313-136), also those of Digby Mackworth Dolben (pp. 323-26).
