But its real literary merits and its real literary faults have alike remained unrecognised under the influence of that unfortunate intellectualism which idolises Browning as a metaphysician and neglects him as a poet. But a better test was coming. Browning's poetry, in the most strictly poetical sense, reached its flower in Dramatic Lyrics, published in 1842.
She's the only child and she's motherless. The old man idolises her. She's fairly good-looking and well, she's being educated by private tutors from Buenos Aires. I'm not a cad to tell you. She's pure gold in spite of her environment." "No doubt, if she's surrounded by millions." "Don't be sarcastic. Some day she'll come in for the old man's money.
She show a soft light in his eyes, and because it rather maddened her, she hastened to add: "But I see a great change in Basil." "Yes?... I wondered if you would. I was afraid he did not seem so well." "Dudley" with sudden seriousness "when Basil dies, it will just about break Ethel up. She idolises him." "I know; but she can hardly wish him to live on if he continues to grow worse."
And, further, how beautifully the Apostle here puts the great truth that we are all apt to forget, that the strongest type of human character is the gentlest and most loving, and that the mighty man is not the man of intellectual or material force, such as the world idolises, but the man who is much because he loves much.
What if your mother shouldn't like the idea?" "Nonsense! you know she perfectly idolises you. She did from the first. And doesn't she know how I've begin behaving about you ever since I lost you?" "How have you behaved? Do tell me, Alice?" "Some time; not now," she said; and with something that was like a gasp, and threatened to be a sob, she suddenly whipped across the road.
I'll write to a powerful prostitute or Bartholomona, the bearded woman, to raise weals out on him an inch thick and make him bring me back a signed and stamped receipt. BLOOM: Thank you, sir. I will, sir. May I bring two men chums to witness the deed and take a snapshot? Orangeflower...? Lukewarm water...? Tell us. What. O, he simply idolises every bit of her! Stuck together! Covered with kisses!
After my unfortunate speech, Mr. Pollingray shunned our house for two whole weeks, and scarcely bowed to us when coming out of church. Miss Pollingray idolises him spoils him. She says that he is worth twenty of Charles. Nous savons ce que nous savons, nous autres. Charles is wild, but Charles would be above these littlenesses. How could Miss Pollingray comprehend the romance of Charles's nature?
She put before the boy how terribly his father had felt the shame of it, how almost broken-hearted he had been. "He idolises you, Huggo. You're always his eldest son. He thinks the world of you." Huggo took it all with that familiar air of his of being the party that was aggrieved. He listened with impatience that was not concealed and he had no contrition to display. "Well, mother, it's all over.
'He spoke of you with a kind of worship. I suppose you know how he idolises you. His dark eyes looked at her through partially closed eyelashes, but only the manner in which her fingers compressed the fold of her skirt betrayed the turmoil of her feelings. 'Is that all you can tell me? 'That is all. He made no attempt to elaborate the conversation or to introduce any new theme.
Miss Clinton was the only one I had known for any greater length of time than during two or three days of Saratoga intercourse; but I should have mourned her death, since I was in the habit of meeting her familiarly in her childhood, have lately been continually in her society, and am aware that her father, my respected partner, an old and invaluable friend, who is now much enfeebled in health, could hardly have survived so severe a shock as the loss of an only child, whom he idolises."
