The title of the book is taken from one of the poems, which describes the human soul as a spirit in bondage, longing for freedom. The poems are written in a variety of styles, including sonnets, ballads, and free verse, and showcase Lewis's skill as a poet. Overall, Spirits In Bondage is a fascinating glimpse into the early literary career of one of the most celebrated authors of the 20th century.I am Nature, the Mighty Mother, I am the law: ye have none other.
