Walter de la Mare described his friend Thomas: “His face was fair, long and rather narrow, and in its customary gravity wore an expression rather distant and detached. There was a glint of gold in his sun-baked hair. The eyes, long-lashed and stooping a little beneath the full, rounded lids, were of a clear dark blue. […] The lips were finely lined and wide, the chin square.”
Foreword to Thomas’s posthumous Collected Poems (1921)
