		Peter's position as poetry editor was never his full-time occupation, but nobody who entered into a correspondence with him could harbor a doubt that he gave the work the full measure of his powers.
		Peter's preferred method of holding court was reciting from memory poems he adored, (the quantity of lines he had by heart was prodigious), but when the occasion demanded, he could take on the mantle of the elder statesman with a flourish.
		Peter's two acknowledged masters were Frost and Hardy: from Frost, whom he knew well as a young writer, he took to heart the enterprise of breathing new life into colloquial American speech; from Hardy, a sly way of mixing toughminded irony with a tender regard for mortal longings.
