Selected Narrative Poems: Coleridge, Wordsworth, Byron, Tennyson, Browning (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Selected Narrative Poems: Coleridge, Wordsworth, Byron, Tennyson, Browning Miss Wordsworth’s contemporary description is of interest: He is a wonderful man. His conversation teems with soul, mind, and spirit. Then he is so ben evolent, so good tempered and cheerful, and, like William, interests himself so much about every trifle. At first I thought him very plain – that is for about three minutes. He is pale, thin, has a wide mouth, thick lips, and not very good teeth, longish, loose-growing. Half-curling, rough black hair. But if you hear him speak for five minutes, you think no more of them. His eye is large and full, and not very dark, but gray,such an eye as would receive from a heavy soul the dullest expression; but it speaks every emotion of his animated mind it has more of ‘the poet’s eye in a fine frenzy rolling’ than 1 have ever witnessed. He has fine, dark eyebrows and an overhanging forehead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
