Most of his best monologues are to be found in the volumes known as Dramatic Lyrics , Dramatic Romances and Lyrics , Men and Women , Dramatis Personae . My Last Duchess, Andrea del Sarto, Saul, Abt Vogler, and The Last Ride Together are a few of his strong representative monologues.

Alexander Muller soon disappeared from our midst, as he became more and more engrossed by domestic calamities, bodily infirmities, and the mechanical drudgery of giving lessons by the hour. As for the musician Abt, I had never felt particularly drawn towards him, in spite of his Schwalben, and he too speedily left us to carve a brilliant career for himself in Brunswick.
In June, 1763, he "dug up abt. a load of Marle to spread over Wheat Land for experiment."

The musician in "Abt Vogler," the artist in "Andrea del Sarto," the early Christian in "A Death in the Desert," the Arab horseman in "Muteykeh," the sailor in "Herve Kiel," the mediæval knight in "Childe Roland," the Hebrew in "Saul," the Greek in "Balaustion's Adventure," the monster in "Caliban," the immortal dead in "Karshish," all these and a hundred more histories of the soul show Browning's marvelous versatility.

His schooling was short and desultory, his education being attended to by private tutors and by his father, who left the boy largely to follow his own inclination.
