Charlotte Mew : The Farmer's Bride

'In the July of 1918 a copy of "The Farmer's Bride" arrived in [Sydney] Cockerell's vast daily post, with a stiff little note from Charlotte [Mew] [...] No worry [...] about his reading it; he always read everything, and he fell in love immediately with "The Farmer's Bride".'

Charlotte Mew : "Sea Love"

'Siegfried Sassoon [...] bought [Sydney] Cockerell the first number of [Harold] Monro's new shilling magazine, "The Monthly Chapbook". On the last page was Charlotte [Mew]'s "Sea Love", certainly a new poem, which delighted both of them (and delighted [Thomas] Hardy too when it arrived at Max Gate).'
