The Parliamentary soldiers amused themselves by tearing out the leaves in the registers for the years 1604 to the end of 1616 in the parish of Wimpole, Cambridgeshire. There is a curious note in the register of Tunstall, Kent.
Rushworth had been gone at this time to Bath, to pass a few days with his mother, and bring her back to town, and Maria was with these friends without any restraint, without even Julia; for Julia had removed from Wimpole Street two or three weeks before, on a visit to some relations of Sir Thomas; a removal which her father and mother were now disposed to attribute to some view of convenience on Mr.
He is a swindler, and a swindler of a perfectly delightful and novel kind. He hires himself out at dinner-parties to lead up to other people's repartees. In short, he allows himself to be scored off for a guinea a night." "And this fellow Wimpole " began Drummond with indignation. "This fellow Wimpole," said Basil Grant, smiling, "will not be an intellectual rival in the future.
You will be sorry to hear that Mr. Tennyson is not well, although his friends talk of nervousness, and do not fear much ultimate mischief.... It is such a lovely May day, that I am afraid of breaking the spell by writing down Christmas wishes. Very faithfully yours, ELIZABETH BARRETT. To Mr. Westwood 50 Wimpole Street: December 31, 1843.
The warm expression in it of sympathy with the poetry of Robert Browning, whom she did not yet know personally, is especially interesting to readers of this later day, who, like the spectators at a Greek tragedy, watch the development of a drama of which the dénouement is already known to them. To Cornelius Mathews 50 Wimpole Street: April 28, 1843. My dear Mr.
It was her habit cunningly to lead Mistress Margery to talking about him and relating long histories of his conquests and his grace. Mistress Wimpole knew many of them, having, for a staid and prudent matron, a lively interest in his ways.
Old General Wynans writes me a four-page letter to assure me that I have only to go to his friend Dr. Eustace Adams, of Wimpole Street, to be cured like a shot. I happen to know that Eustace Adams is an eminent gynecologist. And the worst of it all is that these effusions written in the milk of human kindness have to be answered. Dale is not here.
To Mr. Westwood Wimpole Street: April 9, 1845. Poor Hood! Ah! I had feared that the scene was closing on him. And I am glad that a little of the poor gratitude of the world is laid down at his door just now to muffle to his dying ear the harsher sounds of life. I forgive much to Sir Robert for the sake of that letter though, after all, the minister is not high-hearted, or made of heroic stuff.
Yates's account. Very soon after the Rushworths' return to Wimpole Street, Sir Thomas had received a letter from an old and most particular friend in London, who hearing and witnessing a good deal to alarm him in that quarter, wrote to recommend Sir Thomas's coming to London himself, and using his influence with his daughter to put an end to the intimacy which was already exposing her to unpleasant remarks, and evidently making Mr.
It is easier to give the instance than the reason, but I suppose the cause of the rhythmetical impotence must lie somewhere in the want of the power of concentration. For is it not true that the most prolix poet is capable of briefer expression than the least prolix prose writer, or am I wrong?... Your ever affectionate E.B.B. To Cornelius Mathews 50 Wimpole Street: November 14, 1844. My dear Mr.
