An English poet; born in Islington, Jan. 20, 1820; died in London, Sept. 14, 1860. His genius was of the erratic sort, as "Studies of Sensation and Event" (1843), a collection of miscellaneous poems, showed. "Winter Hymn to the Snow", "When the World Is Burning", and "To Death", are his best- known pieces. Since his death there has been a revival of interest in his poetry.
