Summary "Love's Old Sweet Song" by George H. Ellwanger is an anthology of love poems compiled in the early 20th century. The collection brings together modern, largely lyrical works from various living poets as well as some previously published pieces, focusing on themes of love and relationships. The poems explore the complex and enduring nature of love, touching on joyful moments, passionate emotions, and heart-wrenching farewells. At the start of the anthology, the introductory materials set the stage for the reader, emphasizing the timelessness and universality of love. The opening conveys a sense of anticipation and nostalgia, invoking images of nature and emotional depth, as seen in the introductory poem, "Since Yesterday." This poem reflects on the bittersweet memories associated with love, highlighting the intertwining of joy and sorrow.
