Preface
[figure description] Page 008.[end figure description]
“And as he [Wordsworth] mingled freely with all kinds of men, he found
a pith of sense and a solidity of judgment here and there among the unlearned
which he had failed to find in the most lettered; from obscure men he
heard high truths..... And love, true love and pure, he
found was no flower reared only in what was called refined society, and
requiring leisure and polished manners for its growth.....
He believed that in country people, what is permanent in human nature,
the essential feelings and passions of mankind, exist in greater simplicity
and strength.”
—Principal Shairp.
