Wordsworth, then, probably inferior to Tenny- ALFRED TENNYSON. 1 7 son in primitive and original, becomes certainly inferior to him in ultimate and acquired man- hood. Then again, as regards the products, if there seems a superior density of tone in some of them, this merit is weakened by reflection on its source. Here, then, we found the claim of Tenny- son to superiority, on greater native manhood, and on the greater variety, richness, and more human interests of his successful products. It i...s really a great matter that we hear, in Tennyson, a voice from the whole range of culture. In regard to Shelley and Keats, it is not the natural Tennyson that is greater than either : it is the ripe maturity of his thought, wrought into the fair products of his imagination, that has bestowed on these a weight and value, rare in any poet, and mostly wanting in the young effu- sions of Keats and Shelley. Thus, then, Tenny- son is distinguished from Wordsworth, on the one hand, by superiority, as well of original richness as of acquired range ; and, on the other hand, from Keats and Shelley by the ripe matu- rity and full humanity of his products.
