Excerpt from Poems of Wordsworth, Shelly and Keats: Selected From "the Golden Treasury" Of Francis Turner Palgrave
This edition of those poems of Wordsworth, Shelley, and Keats selected by Palgrave for his "Golden Treasury" is intended to meet the requirements recently adopted for high-school students. We have tried to let the poems speak for themselves, adding only such notes of information as seem needed in a book designed for study rather than for more or less rapid reading. For the most part we have avoided ?sthetic criticism; where all is so excellent, the reader cannot go wrong if he makes his own choices and discoveries. In preparing the notes, we have consulted the available annotations, and wish to acknowledge much serviceable guidance, especially from the elaborate commentary by Mr. J. H. Fowler and Mr. W. Bell, published by The Macmillan Company, and from the edition by Mr. Herbert Bates, published by Longmans, Green & Co. In the omission of most metrical and etymological matters, we have wished to make clear to teachers and students what seem to us the more important steps in the approach to poetry.
