Opis

Excerpt from Selected Poems Matthew arnold was the son of Dr. Thomas Arnold, the celebrated head-master of Rugby School. He was born Decem ber 24, 1822, at Laleham, near Staines. In 1836 he entered Winchester School, but was removed the following year to Rugby, where he completed his preparation for the university. He maintained a high position in the school, presenting in 1840 a prize poem, and winning the same year a scholarship at Balliol College, Oxford. During his first year at the uni versity he Obtained the Hertford Scholarship, for proficiency in Latin, and later won the Newdigate Prize for English Poetry, with a poem entitled Cromwell. He graduated with honors, and in 1845 was elected Fellow Of Oriel College, just thirty years after the election Of his father to the same honor. Among his colleagues here were R. W. Church, Dean of St. Paul's, John Earle, the present Professor Of anglo-saxon at Oxford, and the poet A. H. Clough. His intimacy with Cloug'h grew into the closest friendship, which received its final seal in the tender and noble lines Of Thyrsis, an elegy that for exalted beauty must be placed with Milton's Lycidas and Shelley's Adonais.
