13. FROM BELT, ETC. Tennyson explains: "The west wind rolling to the
Eastern seas till it meets the evening star."
16. WHISPER "PEACE." Stopford Brooke says of this poem: "Each verse is
linked like bell to bell in a chime to the verse before it, swelling as
they go from thought to thought, and finally rising from the landscape of
earth to the landscape of infinite space. Can anything be more
impassioned and yet more solemn? It has the swiftness of youth and the
nobleness of manhood's sacred joy."
