Obviously Windhover is even more unique for abandoning pentameter.) I just fell in love with Hopkins this summer, so will look forward to any more anlyses you write.Lit~Lasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05371293247684677108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833359394611156317.post-89416196089601421332014-08-20T22:50:49.455-04:002014-08-20T22:50:49.455-04:00Hi Lit Lass.

And how unspeakably sad...What a beautiful analysis! And how unspeakably sad it would be to adhere to the New Criticism and not have the exquisite joy of discovering the spiritual and metaphysical truths behind the crash of words and wit.Lit~Lasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05371293247684677108noreply@blogger.com
