Works of Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson, FRS (1809-1892) was Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular poets in the English language. Tennyson wrote a number of phrases that have become commonplace, including: ""Nature, red in tooth and claw"", ""'Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all"", and ""Theirs not to reason why, / Theirs but to do and die"". He is the second most frequently quoted writer in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations after Shakespeare. This volume is a play, along with notes.
