I recite this poem in the study that my ancestor Robert Southey used to do all his writing after moving to Keswick in the Lake District in 1803 and living there till his death in 1843. He was Poet Laureate of England for the last 30 years of this time. It was a really special moment to be able to do these videos.

  • @ANZUS777 It's so great to hear of someone else who used to have this recited to them as a kid. I will do so with my children (one day), and I expect you may with yours, so Southey's poetry will live on in the hearts and minds of the next generation. Thanks for commenting!

  • Great job reading
