On the Inspiration and Writing of the Poem [1]

I have gone through your article. I have struck out “like that of Savitri” and changed “will be” into “would be”. Don’t make prophecies. And how do you know that Savitri is or is going to be supramental poetry? It is not, in fact – it is only an attempt to render into poetry a symbol of things occult and spiritual.
