About This Title
"Readers of Isabella Gardner: The Collected Poems, which includes 30 unpublished or previously ungathered poems, will be happy to discover or to re-discover Isabella Gardner's spontaneity, her distinctive playfulness with words and rhythms, her special poignancy." —Richard Wilbur
Triolet
The bad die old
Kept quick by sin.
The good are sooner cold
The bad die old.
Though they be good as gold
The good can't win.
The bad die old
Kept quick by sin.
