A Dutch poet and descriptive writer; born at Voorburg near The Hague, Aug. 12, 1848. His travels gave play to his keen observation and his poetical imagination: Among his best are: "A Journey through Sweden" (1877); "Monaco" (1878); "Along the Nile" (1884); "From Spain" (1886). He holds a permanent place in the literature of the Low Countries through his charming narrative poems "Lilith"; "The Shimmer of the Gods"; and his dramas "He"; and "A Crisis".
