-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations

-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily

-A DAY WITH TENNYSON.
-
-
-Tennyson was no recluse. He shunned society in the ordinary London
-sense, but he welcomed kindred spirits to his beautiful home, with
-large-hearted cordiality. To be acquainted with Farringford was in
-itself a liberal education. Farringford was an ideal home for a great
-poet. To begin with, it was somewhat secluded and remote from the
-world's ways, especially in the early 'fifties, when the Isle of Wight
-was much more of a _terra incognita_ than traffic now permits. One had
-to travel down some hundred miles from town, cross from the quaint
-little New Forest port of Lymington to the still quainter little
-old-world Yarmouth--"a mediæval Venice," the poet called it--and then
-drive some miles to Freshwater, before one attained the stately
-loveliness of Farringford embowered in trees.
-
- "Where, far from noise and smoke of town,
- I watch the twilight falling brown
- All around a careless-ordered garden,
- Close to the ridge of a noble down."
-
- * * * * *
-
- "Groves of pine on either hand,
- To break the blast of winter, stand;
- And further on, the hoary Channel
- Tumbles a billow on chalk and sand."
-
- _Lines to the Rev. F. D. Maurice._
-
-The interior of the house--a very ancient one--was no less ideal than
-its outward aspect, "it was like a charmed palace, with green walks
-without and speaking walls within." And its occupants crowned all--the
-ethereally lovely mistress with her "tender spiritual face," and the
-master, tall, broad-shouldered, and massive, dark-eyed and
-dark-browed, his voice full of deep organ-tones and delicate
-inflections, his mind shaped to all fine issues. "The wisest man,"
-said Thackeray, "that ever I knew."
-
- * * * * *
-
-Farringford was the ideal home of the great poet. "A charmed palace
-with green walks without,"
-
- "Where, far from noise and smoke of town,
- I watch the twilight falling brown
- All around a careless-ordered garden,
- Close to the ridge of a noble down."
-
-
-[Illustration: _Painting by E. W. Haslehust._ FARRINGFORD. ]
-
-
-Subject to slight inevitable variations, a certain method and routine
-governed the day of Tennyson. He had definite working-times, indoors
-and out, and accustomed habits of family life. The morning brought him
-letters from all parts of England: there was hardly any great man who
-did not desire to exchange salutations and discuss world-subjects with
-a thinker so far above the rest. The poet, with the prophetic soul of
-genius, had always been well in advance of his times.
-
- "For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,
- Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be;
- Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails,
- Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly bales;
- Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rained a ghastly dew
- From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue;
- Far along the world-wide whisper of the south-wind rushing warm,
- With the standards of the peoples plunging through the thunderstorm;
- Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle flags were
- furled
- In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.
-
- * * * * *
-
- Not in vain the distance beacons. Forward, forward, let us range,
- Let the great world spin for ever down the ringing grooves of
- change.
- Thro' the shadow of the globe we sweep into the younger day;
- Better fifty years of Europe than a cycle of Cathay."
-
- _Locksley Hall._
-
-The daily papers are somewhat late in reaching the Isle of Wight: but
-the poet could find inspiration even in a source so apparently prosaic
-as a _Times_ column. He noted down some of those valiant and
-soul-stirring episodes which go unrecorded save by a passing
-paragraph: and the poem which, perhaps, has held the public fancy
-longest, the _Charge of the Light Brigade_, was written a few minutes
-after reading the _Times'_ description of the battle containing the
-phrase "Someone had blundered."
-
- "Half a league, half a league,
- Half a league onward,
- All in the valley of Death
- Rode the six hundred.
- 'Forward, the Light Brigade!

- Into the valley of Death
- Rode the six hundred.
-
- "'Forward, the Light Brigade!'
- Was there a man dismay'd?
- Not tho' the soldier knew
- Someone had blunder'd:
- Their's not to make reply,
- Their's not to reason why,
- Their's but to do and die:
- Into the valley of Death
- Rode the six hundred.
-
- "Cannon to right of them,
- Cannon to left of them,
- Cannon in front of them
- Volley'd and thunder'd;
- Storm'd at with shot and shell,
- Boldly they rode and well,
- Into the jaws of Death,
- Into the mouth of Hell
- Rode the six hundred.
-
- "Flash'd all their sabres bare,
- Flash'd as they turned in air
- Sabring the gunners there.
- Charging an army, while
- All the world wonder'd;
- Plunged in the battery-smoke
- Right thro' the line they broke;
- Cossack and Russian
- Reel'd from the sabre stroke
- Shatter'd and sunder'd.
- Then they rode back, but not,
- Not the six hundred.
-
- "Cannon to right of them,
- Cannon to left of them,
- Cannon behind them
- Volley'd and thunder'd;
- Storm'd at with shot and shell,
- While horse and hero fell,
- They that had fought so well
- Came thro' the jaws of Death,
- Back thro' the mouth of Hell,
- All that was left of them,
- Left of six hundred.
-
- "When can their glory fade?
- O, the wild charge they made!
- All the world wonder'd.
- Honour the charge they made!
- Honour the Light Brigade,
- Noble six hundred!"

-A little while after breakfast, Tennyson would retire to his "den" on
-the top storey, for that "sacred half-hour" devoted to poetical
-composition, and assisted by his beloved pipe, during which nobody
-dared disturb him. This den, or study, formed a setting worthy of its
-inmate. Every inch of wall was covered with portrait, sketches,
-drawings. Almost every distinguished name of the nineteenth century
-was in some manner represented here: the poet literally worked
-surrounded by his friends. And in this congenial atmosphere he devoted
-himself to that life-long pursuit of his, as he has imaged it in the
-"Gleam," which "flying onward, wed to the melody, sang through the
-world."
-

-
-Whatever respective values a future generation may set upon Tennyson's
-work, there can be little doubt that he himself considered the _Idylls
-of the King_, with its inner spiritual meanings, as his greatest work.
-"There is no single fact or incident in the Idylls," he said, "which
-cannot be explained without any mystery or allegory whatever." Hence
-their appeal to the least mystical reader, through sheer beauty of
-language and superb pictorial effect. But at the same time he let it
-be known that his whole story was inherently one of pure symbolism:
-starting from the suggestion that Arthur represented conscience. This
-idea is predominant, without undue insistence upon it, in _Guinevere_.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "Yet think not that I come to urge thy crimes,
- I did not come to curse thee, Guinevere,
- I, whose vast pity almost makes me die
- To see thee laying there thy golden head,
- My pride in happier summers, at my feet.
- ... Let no man dream, but that I love thee still."
-
-
-[Illustration: _Painting by W. H. Margetson._ GUINEVERE. ]
-
-
- "Queen Guinevere had fled the court, and sat
- There in the holy house at Almesbury,
- Weeping, none with her save a little maid,
- A novice: one low light betwixt them burned,
- Blurred by the creeping mist; for all abroad,
- Beneath a moon unseen albeit at full,
- The white mist, like a face-cloth to the face,
- Clung to the dead earth, and the land was still.
-
- * * * * *
-
- There rode an armed warrior to the doors,
- A murmuring whisper thro' the nunnery ran,
- Then on a sudden a cry, 'The King.' She sat
- Stiff-stricken, listening; but when armed feet
- Thro' the long gallery from the outer doors
- Rang, coming, prone from off her seat she fell
- And grovell'd with her face against the floor:
- There with her milk-white arms and shadowy hair
- She made her face a darkness from the King;
- And in the darkness heard his armed feet
- Pause by her; then came silence, then a voice,
- Monotonous and hollow like a ghost's,
- Denouncing judgment, but, tho' changed, the King's.
-
- * * * * *
-
- 'Yet think not that I come to urge thy crimes,
- I did not come to curse thee, Guinevere,
- I, whose vast pity almost makes me die
- To see thee laying there thy golden head,
- My pride in happier summers, at my feet.
- ... Let no man dream, but that I love thee still,
- Perchance, and so thou purify thy soul,
- And so thou lean on our fair father Christ,
- Hereafter in that world where all are pure
- We two may meet before high God, and thou
- Wilt spring to me, and claim me thine, and know
- I am thine husband--not a smaller soul,
- Nor Lancelot, nor another. Leave me that,
- I charge thee, my last hope. Now must I hence.
- ... But hither shall I never come again,
- Never lie by thy side: see thee no more--
- Farewell!'
- And while she grovell'd at his feet,
- She felt the King's breath wander o'er her neck,
- And in the darkness o'er her fallen head
- Perceived the waving of his hands that blest.
-
- Then, listening till those armed steps were gone,
- Rose the pale Queen, and in her anguish found
- The casement: 'peradventure,' so she thought,
- 'If I might see his face, and not be seen.'
- And lo, he sat on horseback at the door!
- And near him the sad nuns with each a light,
- Stood, and he gave them charge about the Queen,
- To guard and foster her for evermore."
-
- _Idylls of the King._
-
-In the course of the day the poet would devote considerable time and
-energy to his favourite exercise of garden work. To plant trees and
-shrubs, to roll the lawn, to dig the kitchen garden, and lovingly to
-tend the simple flowers which he had set, was his constant delight as
-long as his strength sufficed. He had a passionate love, and an
-extraordinary knowledge of Nature: he rejoiced in watching the birds
-in his great cedar, ilex and fir trees, and his mind was thoroughly
-attuned to the sweet influences of colour and foliage. Few else could
-have written that unsurpassable lyric, _Come into the Garden, Maud_.
-
- "Come into the garden, Maud,
- For the black bat, night, has flown,
- Come into the garden, Maud,
- I am here at the gate alone;
- And the woodbine spices are wafted abroad,
- And the musk of the rose is blown.
- For a breeze of morning moves,
- And the planet of Love is on high,
- Beginning to faint in the light that she loves
- On a bed of daffodil sky.
- To faint in the light of the sun she loves,
- To faint in his light, and to die....
-
- "And the soul of the rose went into my blood,
- As the music clash'd in the hall;
- And long by the garden lake I stood,
- For I heard your rivulet fall
- From the lake to the meadow and on to the wood,
- Our wood, that is dearer than all;
-
- "From the meadow your walks have left so sweet
- That whenever a March wind sighs
- He sets the jewel-print of your feet
- In violets blue as your eyes,
- To the woody hollows in which we meet
- And the valleys of Paradise.
-
- "The slender acacia would not shake
- One long milk-bloom on the tree;
- The white lake-blossom fell into the lake
- As the pimpernel dozed on the lea;
- But the rose was awake all night for your sake,
- Knowing your promise to me;
- The lilies and roses were all awake,
- They sighed for the dawn and thee.
-
- "Queen rose of the rosebud garden of girls,
- Come hither, the dances are done,
- In gloss of satin, and glimmer of pearls,
- Queen lily and rose in one;
- Shine out, little head, sunning over with curls,
- To the flowers and be their sun.
-
- "There has fallen a splendid tear
- From the passion-flower at the gate,
- She is coming, my dove, my dear;
- She is coming, my life, my fate;
- The red rose cries, 'She is near, she is near;'
- And the white rose weeps, 'She is late;'
- The larkspur listens, 'I hear, I hear;'
- And the lily whispers, 'I wait.'"
-
- _Maud._
-
-The same love of Nature made his eye alert for every obscurest beauty,
-when he put aside his gardening tools and started, as was his wont,
-for a stroll with some friend along the glorious cliffs of Freshwater.
-Those were favoured folk, who, like Mrs. Thackeray Ritchie, "walked
-with Tennyson along High Down, treading the turf, listening to his
-talk, while the gulls came sideways, flashing their white breasts
-against the edge of the cliff, and the Poet's cloak flapped time to
-the gusts of the west wind." This cloak and the Poet were practically
-synonymous. It figures--a first edition of it--in all the early
-sketches of him by Spedding, Fitzgerald, etc. (1830-40) and to the
-last, one can hardly imagine him apart from it.
-
- * * * * *
-
-During these quiet rambles he was wont to discuss with enthusiasm the
-religious and social problems of the day; they weighed heavily upon
-his thoughtful mind. His philosophy was a hopeful one, rooted in
-Christian belief, yet constantly over-shadowed by fugitive misgivings
-and by a sense of the impermanence of human existence. And while
-voicing these misgivings in lines which might give pause to weaker
-minds, he never lost his firm faith in right, in duty, and in ultimate
-rectification of all apparent wrong.
-
- "Queen rose of the rosebud garden of girls,
- Come hither, the dances are done,
- In gloss of satin, and glimmer of pearls,
- Queen lily and rose in one;
- Shine out, little head, sunning over with curls,
- To the flowers and be their sun."

-
- "Oh, yet we trust that somehow good
- Will be the final goal of ill,
- To pangs of nature, sins of will,
- Defects of doubt, and taints of blood;
-
- "That nothing walks with aimless feet;
- That not one life shall be destroy'd,
- Or cast as rubbish to the void,
- When God hath made the pile complete;
-
- "That not a worm is cloven in vain;
- That not a moth with vain desire
- Is shrivell'd in a fruitless fire,
- Or but subserves another's gain.
-
- "Behold, we know not anything;
- I can but trust that good shall fall
- At last--far off--at last, to all,
- And every winter change to spring.
-
- "So runs my dream; but what am I?
- An infant crying in the night;
- An infant crying for the light:
- And with no language but a cry.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "Are God and Nature then at strife,
- That Nature lends such evil dreams?
- So careful of the type she seems,
- So careless of the single life;
-
- "That I, considering everywhere
- Her secret meaning in her deeds,
- And finding that of fifty seeds
- She often brings but one to bear,
-
- "I falter where I firmly trod,
- And falling with my weight of cares
- Upon the great world's altar-stairs
- That slope thro' darkness up to God,
-
- "I stretch lame hands of faith, and grope,
- And gather dust and chaff, and call
- To what I feel is Lord of all,
- And faintly trust the larger hope."
-
- _In Memoriam._
-
-But these mysteries of life and death will not bear too persistent a
-contemplation: and presently Tennyson, discarding them in favour of
-less sombre subjects, would regale his hearers with marvellous
-recitations. "The roll of his great voice acted sometimes almost like
-an incantation." The old-world classical legends had always found in
-him a noble exponent; and nowhere was his peculiar felicity of
-diction and delicate sense of sound better exemplified than in
-_OEnone_.
-
- "'O mother Ida, many-fountain'd Ida,
- Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- Hear me, O Earth, hear me, O Hills, O Caves
- That house the cold crown'd snake! O mountain brooks,
- I am the daughter of a River-God,
- Hear me, for I will speak, and build up all
- My sorrow with my song, as yonder walls
- Rose slowly to a music slowly breathed,
- A cloud that gather'd shape; for it may be
- That, while I speak of it, a little while
- My heart may wander from its deeper woe.
-
- "'O mother Ida, many-fountain'd Ida,
- Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- I waited underneath the dawning hills,
- Aloft the mountain lawn was dewy-dark,
- And dewy-dark aloft the mountain pine:
- Beautiful Paris, evil-hearted Paris,
- Leading a jet-black goat white-horn'd, white-hooved,
- Came up from reedy Simois all alone.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "Dear mother Ida, harken, ere I die.
- He smiled, and opening out his milk-white palm
- Disclosed a fruit of pure Hesperian gold,
- That smelt ambrosially, and while I look'd
- And listen'd, the full-flowing river of speech
- Came down upon my heart.
- 'My own OEnone,
- Beautiful-brow'd OEnone, my own soul,
- Behold this fruit, whose gleaming rind ingrav'n,
- 'For the most fair,' would seem to award it thine,
- As lovelier than whatever Oread haunt
- The knolls of Ida, loveliest in all grace
- Of movement, and the charm of married brows.'
-
- "Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- He prest the blossom of his lips to mine,
- And added, 'This was cast upon the board,
- When all the full-faced presence of the Gods
- Ranged in the halls of Peleus; whereupon
- Rose feud, with question unto whom 'twere due:
-
- "'But light-foot Iris brought it yester-eve,
- Delivering, that to me, by common voice
- Elected umpire, Herè comes to-day,
- Pallas and Aphroditè, claiming each
- This meed of fairest. Thou, within the cave
- Behind yon whispering tuft of oldest pine,
- Mayst well behold them, unbeheld, unheard
- Hear all, and see thy Paris judge of Gods.'
-
- "'Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- It was the deep mid-noon: one silvery cloud
- Had lost his way between the piney sides
- Of this long glen. Then to the bower they came,
- Naked they came to that smooth-swarded bower
- And at their feet the crocus brake like fire,
- Violet, amaracus, and asphodel,
- Lotus and lilies; and a wind arose,
- And overhead the wandering ivy and vine
- This way and that, in many a wild festoon
- Ran riot, garlanding the gnarled boughs
- With bunch and berry and flower thro' and thro'.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "O mother Ida, many-fountain'd Ida,
- Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- Idalian Aphroditè beautiful,
- Fresh as the foam, new-bathed in Paphian wells,
- With rosy slender fingers backward drew
- From her warm brows and bosom her deep hair
- Ambrosial, golden round her lucid throat
- And shoulder: from the violets her light feet
- Shone rosy-white, and o'er her rounded form
- Between the shadows of the vine-bunches
- Floated the glowing sunlights as she moved.
-
- "Dear mother Ida, harken ere I die.
- She with a subtle smile in her mild eyes,
- The herald of her triumph, drawing nigh
- Half-whisper'd in his ear, 'I promise thee
- The fairest and most loving wife in Greece.'
- She spoke and laugh'd: I shut my sight for fear:
- But when I look'd, Paris had raised his arm,
- And I beheld great Herè's angry eyes,
- As she withdrew into the golden cloud,
- And I was left alone within the bower;
- And from that time to this I am alone.
- And I shall be alone until I die."
-
- _OEnone._
-
-The afternoon was spent, sometimes in further gardening pursuits,
-sometimes in a drive around the peaceful Island lanes and
-thatch-browed villages; frequently there were visitors to be met at
-Yarmouth, where the Tennysons' carriage might often be seen in the
-quaint cobbled streets. The soft and lovely colouring of the Solent
-was one to attract the poet's fancy: and it was after coming freshly
-one day into sight of the familiar waters of the estuary, and a tide,
-"that moving seems too full for sound or foam," lapping the lichened
-sea-walls of Yarmouth, that he composed, in his eighty-first year, the
-verses that he devised to be placed at the end of his whole collected
-poems:--"Crossing the Bar." The mystic simplicity of these lines
-strikes the very key-note of his character.

- "Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,

- Rest, rest on mother's breast,

- Under the silver moon:
- Sleep my little one, sleep my pretty one, sleep!"

-
-Tea was served in the drawing-room, "its oriel window full of green
-and golden lights, of the sounds of birds and of the distant sea." The
-air of extreme and unstudied simplicity, which dominated the whole
-Farringford household, was just as noticeable here. Tea was a happy
-gathering of the family and friends, enlivened with talk on current
-topics. The Laureate's sympathies were wide-reaching, and his
-conversation, forcible and often racy, was characterised by the
-strongest common-sense. He held firmly-defined views on all social
-subjects; and had declared himself on the question of "Woman's
-Rights"--then comparatively fresh--at considerable length in _The
-Princess_.
-
- "The woman's cause is man's: they rise or sink
- Together, dwarf'd or god-like, bond or free.
- ... For woman is not undevelopt man,
- But diverse: could we make her as the man,
- Sweet Love were slain: his dearest bond is this,
- Not like to like, but like in difference.
- Yet in the long years liker must they grow;
- The man be more of woman, she of man;
- He gain in sweetness and in moral height,
- Nor lose the wrestling thews that throw the world;
- She mental breadth, nor fail in childward care,
- Nor lose the childlike in the larger mind;
- Till at last she set herself to man,
- Like perfect music unto noble words;
- And so these twain, upon the skirts of Time,
- Sit side by side, full-summ'd in all their powers.
- ... Let this proud watchword rest
- Of equal; seeing either sex alone
- Is half itself, and in the marriage ties
- Nor equal, nor unequal; each fulfils
- Defect in each, and always thought in thought,
- Purpose in purpose, will in will they grow,
- The single pure and perfect animal,
- The two-cell'd heart beating with one full stroke
- Life."
-
- _The Princess._
-
-The poet's ideal of woman was set very high: he held her to be far
-above man, morally and spiritually: and an ideal as perfect as may
-well be conceived was daily before his eyes, in the person of his
-beautiful wife, with her pure and saintly face: who was yet
-
- "No angel, but a dearer being, all dipt
- In Angel instincts, breathing Paradise,
- Interpreter between the gods and men,
- Who looked all native to her place, and yet
- On tiptoe seem'd to touch upon a sphere
- Too gross to tread, and all male minds perforce
- Sway'd to her from their orbits as they moved,
- And girdled her with music."
-
- _The Princess._
-
-Later on in the evening, came, perhaps, the sweetest hour of the day,
-when, playing and romping with his little ones, the tall and stately
-man became a very child for a while. A peculiar tenderness towards
-children was a distinctive feature of Tennyson: and whether helping
-his own boys build stone castles on the cliff, or frolicking with any
-village school children whom he might meet, he was intent upon giving
-that joy and laughter to the new generation which had been denied to
-his own childhood. "Make the lives of children as beautiful and as
-happy as possible," was a favourite saying with him. The "Children's
-Hour," which Longfellow had sung, was a radiant hour for him: and most
-of all he was enchanted by the sight of little drowsy heads, asleep in
-cot or cradle. They inspired some of his loveliest lyrics, such as:
-
- "Sweet and low, sweet and low,
- Wind of the western sea,
- Low, low, breathe and blow,
- Wind of the western sea!
- Over the rolling waters go,
- Come from the dying moon, and blow,
- Blow him again to me;
- While my little one, while my pretty one sleeps.
-
- "Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,
- Father will come to thee soon;
- Rest, rest on mother's breast,
- Father will come to thee soon;
- Father will come to his babe in the nest,
- Silver sails all out of the west,
- Under the silver moon:
- Sleep my little one, sleep my pretty one, sleep!"
-
-And the loss of his first-born infant had touched him with that
-infinite poignancy of pathos, which breathes in other lines:
-
- "As thro' the land at eve we went
- And pluck'd the ripened ears,
- We fell out, my wife and I,
- O! we fell out, I know not why,
- And kiss'd again with tears.
- And blessings on the falling out
- That all the more endears,
- When we fall out with those we love
- And kiss again with tears!
- For when we came where lies the child
- We lost in other years,
- There above the little grave,
- O there above the little grave,
- We kissed again with tears."
-
-The dinner-table was enlivened by Tennyson's boundless store of
-anecdote, and keen sense of humour. It was a "feast of intellect," to
-quote Mrs. Cameron; hour after hour of the most brilliant
-conversation. The supernatural loomed largely. The poet had a
-_penchant_ for well-authenticated ghost stories, a deep interest in
-psychical phenomena, and an open mind towards the unknowable. And very
-strange tales of dreams, clairvoyance, and occult happenings, were to
-be heard at Farringford. A master of the romantic pervaded by
-supernatural elements, he had long since drawn with deft touches the
-mysterious confines of "fäery-lands forlorn," steeped in the very
-atmosphere of dream.

- "All in the blue unclouded weather
- Thick-jewelled shone the saddle-leather,
- The helmet and the helmet feather,
- As he rode down to Camelot.
- As often thro' the purple night,

-Sitting in his old oak armchair in the drawing-room after dinner, the
-Laureate "talked of all that was in his heart, or read some poem
-aloud, with the landscape lying before us like a beautiful picture
-framed by the dark-arched bow-window. His moods," says Mrs. Bradley,
-"were so variable, his conversation so earnest, his knowledge of all
-things so wide and minute!" Wide and minute above all, perhaps, was
-his acquaintance with Nature. The long quiet years in Lincolnshire had
-endowed him with an almost unrivalled power of detail: and, as the old
-Farringford shepherd said in dying, "Master was a wonderful man for
-nature and life." No one quotation could do justice to his powers: but
-the lesser music of the countryside tinkles and ripples audibly
-through _The Brook_ and all the exquisite details of its
-landscape.
-
- "I come from haunts of coot and hern,
- I make a sudden sally,
- And sparkle out among the fern,
- To bicker down a valley.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "I chatter over stony ways,
- In little sharps and trebles,
- I bubble into eddying bays,
- I bubble on the pebbles.
-
- "With many a curve my banks I fret,
- By many a field and fallow,
- And many a fairy foreland set
- With willow-weed and mallow.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "I wind about, and in and out,
- With many a blossom sailing,
- And here and there a lusty trout,
- And here and there a grayling.
-
- "And here and there a foamy flake
- Upon me as I travel,
- With many a silvery waterbreak
- Above the golden gravel.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "I steal by lawns and grassy plots,
- I slide by hazel covers;
- I move the sweet forget-me-nots
- That grow for happy lovers.
-
- "I slide, I slide, I gloom, I glance,
- Among my skimming swallows;
- I make the netted sunbeam dance
- Against my sandy shallows.
-
- "I murmur under moon and stars
- In brambly wildernesses;
- I linger by my shingly bars;
- I loiter round my cresses;
-
- "And out again I curve and flow
- To join the brimming river,
- For men may come and men may go,
- But I go on for ever."
-
- _The Brook._
-
-In the course of the evening, the poet would retire to the "den" for a
-second "sacred half-hour" of unbroken silence, into which we need not
-follow him. Lastly, when slumber filled the house, and night hung
-black above the trees, he ascended to a platform on the leads of the
-house-top, to observe the march and majesty of the stars. Farringford,
-it has been said, "seemed so remote and still, and as though the jar
-of the outside world had never entered it." But in the throbbing
-starlight, the sea purring in the distance, the seer on the roof
-communing with the mysterious skies above him, it was more than ever a
-House of Dream--a house whose roof touched heaven. Here and thus were
-thrilling _nocturnes_ imagined.
-
- "Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white;
- Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk;
- Nor winks the gold fin in the porphyry font:
- The firefly wakens: waken thou with me.
-
- * * * * *
-
- "Now lies the Earth all Danäe to the stars,
- And all thy heart lies open unto me.
-
- "Now slides the silent meteor on, and leaves
- A shining furrow, as thy thoughts in me.
-
- "Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
- And slips into the bosom of the lake:
- So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and slip
- Into my bosom and be lost in me."
-
- _The Princess._
-
-And so we leave Alfred Tennyson, at the end of his day, gazing
-"forward to the starry track glimmering up the height beyond," alone
-with the Creator.
-
- "He lifts me to the golden doors:
- The flashes come and go;
- All heaven bursts her starry floors,
- And strews her lights below;"
-
-while the discords of earth are hushed beneath the magic of the
-spheral harmony, and "The Gleam" hovers upward into heaven.

-property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
-To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
-and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
-Foundation

-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
- www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
- www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
