I have drunk deep of joy, and will taste no other wine tonight.
   Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 – 1822) was one of the major English Romantic poets, famous (or infamous) for his association with Lord Byron and John Keats. The novelist Mary Shelley was his second wife. (via bewitchingbritain)

enchantedengland:    Grasmere is a village in England associated with the Lake Poets, the English Romantic poets who lived in this area at the turn of the nineteenth century. (Grasmere is in the northern county of Cumbria)The three main figures were William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Robert Southey.    Wordsworth, who lived in Dove Cottage described Grasmere as “the loveliest spot that man hath ever found” and is buried in the churchyard of St. Oswald’s along with his wife and sister Dorothy. If you haven’t read the Lake Poets, you really should; Wordsworth’s The Prelude and Coleridge’s Frost at Midnight are two particularly exquisite pieces of artistry. (image by wikimedia) BewitchingBritain (formerly known as enchantedengland) isn’t just any old run of the mill photoblog of pretty places.
