Grateful for this. A dozen years ago an Oxford grad assumed I (as an American writer) would know The Prelude as a standard-I went home and listened to this version, still do.

Exquisite! I'll never walk below the trees or see life the same again.

My love of Wordsworth persists. Readings of this poem have slipped into my own allotment of spots of time.

A wonderfully expressive reading of Wordsworth's 'Prelude'. It brings it to life with great feeling. Excellent! Clare Carter

Alone upon the rock; Oh! then the calm And dead still water lay upon my mind Even with a weight of pleasure, and the sky Never before so beautiful, sank down Into my heart, and held me like a dream.

Wonderful! Does anybody has the transcript? It is an extract from the Prelude and it jumps from one place to another.

The prelude was rewritten a number of times. This reading is of the first one written in 1799. The extra material you have in your poem was added at a later date.

Wonderful. Although I prefer Sir Ian McKellan's more matter of fact delivery.
@Charleschaplins7 жыл бұрын
I completely disagree! McKellan sounds too abrupt and doesn't carry the emotion as well.
