There are some good things and some fantastic ones in Auden's early attitude; if the reader calls it a muddle I shall acquiesce, with the remark that the later position might be considered a more rarefied muddle. But poets rather specialize in muddles-and I have no doubt which of the muddles was better for Auden's poetry: one was fertile and usable, the other decidedly is not.
