Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Henry Alford This employment, of arranging for the press the fugi tive fancies of other days, brings forcibly before my memory the time when we wrought together in the English Club at Cambridge. It is the brightest recollection of my poetic life, that I witnessed, in those happy evenings, the first outburst, and the gradual modulating into harmony, of some of your sweetest strains, which are now known and felt through the world.

Since then, in these thirty years, that recollection has been ever gathering round it new interest and deeper joy, as I have seen you steadily and surely rising to the place which you now hold in all our thoughts, as the greatest poet of this our time as, in some, and those no mean respects, the greatest poet of any time.
