Wordsworth, William
English poetry -- 18th century; English poetry -- 19th century
[547] A review of Professor Reed’s edition of the _Memoirs of
Wordsworth_, Boston, 1851.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[548] A review of the _Memoirs_, signed O. W.W.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[549] A review of _The Prelude_.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[550] Anonymous. A short review of _The Prelude_, and, at greater
length, of _The Life_ (edited by Reed). An estimate of his work and
influence.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[551] Traces the literary life of the poet. Claims for Wordsworth the
precedence to Coleridge in the utterance of a spiritual Philosophy.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[552] A notice of Wordsworth’s death, unsigned; but Mr. Wilberforce
Eames--of the Lenox Library--informs me, that their library now owns
Mr. Evert A. Duyckinck’s copy of the _Literary World_, and that
gentleman’s own initials are appended in pencil to this article. Mr.
Duyckinck was editor of the _Literary World_.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[553] Judge Reed, Professor Henry Reed’s son, does not attribute this
article to his father. There is an impression that Professor Reed
published an article on _The Prelude_. His lecture on that poem was
never published.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[554] Signed by R. F. Correspondence, _London Literary Gazette_, August
31.
C. M. ST. JOHN.
[555] Possibly the same as in that scarce number of the _Southern
Literary Messenger_. Vol. xvi. p. 474.

[556] These articles, in the opinion of Judge Henry Reed, are not by
his father, Professor Henry Reed.
