Selections from Wordsworth and Tennyson

"Selections from Wordsworth and Tennyson" compiled by Pelham Edgar is a carefully chosen set of poems, designed for students, featuring works from William Wordsworth and Alfred Lord Tennyson. This collection, likely from the early 1800s, looks at big ideas like the beauty of nature, the strength of love, and what it means to be human, all through poetry. Starting with Wordsworth's "Michael," the anthology tells of a shepherd's life, his connection to the land, and his love for his son, Luke. The poems explore family responsibilities, life's difficulties, and how time changes everything, promising readers a touching journey through deep emotions.
