POEMS, 1830-1833.

have been noticed by the attentive reader that there are some stanzas with a similar title in the "Poems by Two Brothers."[1]
The third piece, "A Fragment," in blank verse, and much in the style of "Timbuctoo," has been already referred to in our first chapter.
There is a sonnet by Alfred Tennyson in the same number of "The Englishman's Magazine," which contains Arthur Hallam's review of the "Poems, chiefly Lyrical." The opening lines,
"Check every outflash, every ruder sally
Of thought and speech; speak low, and give up wholly
Thy spirit to mild-minded Melancholy,"
Of thought and speech; speak low, and give up wholly
Thy spirit to mild-minded Melancholy,"
are partly reproduced in the "Choric Song of the Lotos-Eaters":
"To lend our hearts and spirits wholly
To the influence of mild-minded Melancholy."
To the influence of mild-minded Melancholy."
Another sonnet commencing,
'There are three things which fill my heart with ighs,"
