The Complete Poetical Works of William Wordsworth
First published in London in 1888, this is the complete works of one of the great poets of English Romanticism in ten charming, compact volumes. WILLIAM WORDSWORTH (1770-1850), Britain's Poet Laureate from 1843 until his death, limned some of the finest verse in the English language, tender poetry on human love and the natural world-some of his most memorable lines describe England's beautiful Lake District, where he spent much of his life, as filtered through his sensitive and serious heart. Beloved of readers for centuries, Wordsworth's timeless verse is a treasure to enjoy for the nourishment of one's own soul, and to share with other lovers of language.
William Wordsworth
William Wordsworth (1770-1850) is universally recognized as the greatest poet of his age. His poems are almost religious in their celebration of nature's beauty, and his verse has a soaring, lyrical quality which is as seductive as it is readable. No special knowledge or appreciation is needed to enjoy Wordsworth: he wrote for everyone. Much of his best work is included in this beautiful book.
