He says of Scott that " The famous ones all came together ; His host overwhelmed him with thanks for his novels ;" and calls Wordsworth " the Prince of the Bards of his time." You will readily understand how books which Old and Rare Books. 27 throw such light as this on the mental develop- ment of distinguished authors come in time to be specially valuable. In 1827 was published a little book called T^ny^o"- " Poems by Two Brothers," followed in 1830 by " Poems chiefly Lyrical," and in 1832 by ...a "Second Series." All these books are now treasures indeed, for they contain the earliest poems (some of which have been discarded, and many rewritten) of Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It was against the last of these that the Quarterly Review launched that tremendous diatribe, which the Standard mis- chievously reproduced last year as a literary curiosity, and which so ludicrously enforces the advice that you should never prophecy unless you know. It is wonderfully instructive to study in these volumes the first forms of poems like "The Miller's Daughter," and "The Lotus-Eaters," and " The Lady of Shalott," and to follow the growth of delicate perception and deftness of fastidious finger-touches that have shaped from the rough cast the finished statue.
