Opis

Excerpt from Plays and Dramatic Essays Coleridge, in an early sonnet, referred to Lamb - need it be said that they were at Christ's Hospital together, and on terms of the closest intimacy up to the time of the former's death? - as "the gentle-hearted Charles," a reference which brought from Lamb a protest: "Please to blot out gentle-hearted," he wrote, "and substitute drunken-dog, ragged-head, seld-shaven, odd-ey'd, stuttering, or any other epithet which truly and properly belongs to the gentleman in question." Whatever may have been the reason of Lamb's objection to the epithet, it seems singularly insufficient when one recalls the circumstances of his early manhood - his attitude under trying responsibility and in stress of poverty; the almost uncomplaining heroism with which he withstood the dreadful calamity, wherein his sister in a fit of madness caused the death of her mother and wounded her father.
