There are, thus, really two classes of writers: I. Prose-Artists. II. Verse-Artists. Each of these splits up into two kinds, according as the writer has or lacks "soul." Or, if you think "soul" the more important differentia, we will say there are artists with "soul" and artists without "soul," and that some of each sort work in prose and some in verse.
Without neologisms, and avoiding the ambiguous adjective "prosaic," and using "poetic" to express "soulfulness" and not the handling of metres, we get Poetic Verse-Artists. Non-Poetic Verse-Artists. Poetic Prose-Artists. Non-Poetic Prose-Artists. Keats is a verse poet, Pope a verse writer, Buskin a prose poet, and Hallam a prose writer.
