Pound was more succinct at times.

Consider, for instance ...

        Spring ...
            Too long ...
                Golgotha ...

Spanish Christian minimalist poetry, but.

{Robert Graves' greatest objection to Pound was that he boxed badly, and had 
sweaty palms -- is this enough to condemn a Major Modernist Poet?

Just wondering.
