Felicia Hemans The Traveller at the Source of the Nile In sunset's light, o'er Afric thrown, A wanderer proudly stood Beside the well-spring, deep and lone, Of Egypt's awful flood; The cradle of that mighty birth, So long a hidden thing to earth! He heard its life's first murmuring sound, A low mysterious tone; A music sought, but never found, By kings and warriors gone; He listen'd and his heart beat high That was the song of victory! The rapture of a conqueror's mood Rush'd burning through his frame, The depths of that green solitude Its torrents could not tame; There stillness lay, with eve's last smile, Round those calm fountains of the Nile. Night came with stars: across his soul There swept a sudden change; E'en at the pilgrim's glorious goal A shadow dark and strange Breathed from the thought, so swift to fall O'er triumph's hour and is this all? No more than this! what seem'd it now First by that spring to stand? A thousand streams of lovelier flow Bathed his own mountain land!

Felicia Dorothea Browne Hemans (1793 - 1835) Biographical Information Selections Bibliography Biographical Information: Felicia's father was George Browne, a Liverpool merchant. Her mother, Felicity Wagner, was the daughter of the Austrian and Tuscan consul to Liverpool. Felicia Browne was born on September 25, 1793, in Liverpool. She was the fifth of seven children. When her father's business failed about 1800, the family moved first to Gwrych, an isolated Welsh seaside house; then, in 1809, to St. Asaph, Wales. Felicia was a clever child who began to read at an early age and did so voraciously from the well-stocked family library. She read novels and poetry, learned several languages, and studied music, primarily under the direction of her mother. According to her sister, Felicia "could repeat pages of poetry from her favourite authors, after having read them but once over." When she was eleven or twelve she spent two successive winters in London, where she was awed by the paintings and sculptures. Her first book of Poems was published in 1808. It was remarkable work to come from a fourteen-year-old, but it received some harsh reviews. A postumous commentator stated: "... our little heroine was exposed to the lash of a public critic - a useful animal enough, but one whom the superstitious infallibility of print exalts to a divinity."

Her father's business soon brought the family to Denbighshire in North Wales , where she spent her youth. They made their home near St. Asaph, and it is clear that she came to regard herself as Welsh by adoption, later referring to Wales as "Land of my childhood, my home and my dead". Her first poems, dedicated to the Prince of Wales , were published in Liverpool in , when she was only fifteen, arousing the interest of no less a person than Shelley , who briefly corresponded with her. She quickly followed them up with "The domestic affections", published in 1812, the year of her marriage to Captain Alfred Hemans, an Irish army officer some years older than herself. The marriage took her away from Wales, to Daventry in Northamptonshire During their first six years of marriage, Felicia gave birth to five sons, and then the couple separated. Marriage had not, however, prevented her from continuing her literary career, with several volumes of poetry being published in the period after 1816. "Tales and historic scenes" was the collection which came out in 1819, the year of their separation. Mr Hemans went to Italy, and Felicia back to Wales to live at St. Asaph, in the house called Bronwylfa where she had grown up. It was here that she had composed an elegy to Princess Charlotte, daughter and sole heir of the Prince of Wales, who had died in childbirth in

Felicia Dorothea Hemans, 1808 "The breaking waves dash’d high On a stern and rock-bound coast, And the woods against a stormy sky And the heavy night hung dark On the wild New England shore. "Not as the conqueror comes, they, the true-hearted, came; Not with the roll of the stirring drums, And the trumpet that sings of fame; Not as the flying come, In silence and in fear: They shook the depths of the desert gloom With their hymns of lofty cheer. " Amidst the storm they sang, And the stars heard, and the sea: And the sounding aisles of the dim woods rang to the anthem of the free. The ocean eagle soared And the rocking pines of the forest roared, This was their welcome home. " What sought they thus afar? Bright jewels from the mine? The wealth of seas, the spoils of war? Ay, call it holy ground, The soil which first they trod: They have left un-stained what there they found

The unfledged bird, within his narrow nest, Sees but a few green branches oer him play, And through their parting leaves, by fits revealed, A glimpse of summer sky; nor knows the field Wherein his dormant powers must yet be tried.

Felicia Hemans (1793-1835) T he works of Felicia Hemans have received increased attention in recent years as scholars pay closer attention to the verse written by women during the nineteenth century. Her early poems were powerfully influenced by Byron ; he called her The Restoration of the Works of Art to Italy (1816)"a good poem - very." Her anthology Hymns on the Works of Nature, for the Use of Children (1827) was in widespread circulation well into the twentieth century. She raised five sons on her own, supporting herself by writing, after her husband left her in 1818. She visited Sir Walter Scott in Scotland ("The Funeral Day of Sir Walter Scott" and "A Farewell to Abbotsford") and Wordsworth in the Lake District ("To Wordsworth"). Her poetry is informed by a wide ranging understand of the natural world (The Sky-lark," "The Nightingale"), an awareness of the details of the era of discovery during which she lived ("The Better Land" below), and powerful sensitivity to the condition of women's lives ("To the New-Born" and "Hymn by the Sick-bed of a Mother"). Illustration (1858) to Hemans's poem "The Better Land": Is it where the flower of the orange blows

FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS HEMANS, FELICIA DOROTHEA Mrs Hemanss poetry is the production of a fine imaginative and enthusiastic temperament, but not of a commanding intellect or very complex or subtle nature. It is the outcome of a beautiful but singularly circumscribed life, a life spent in romantic seclusion, without much worldly experience, and warped and saddened by domestic unhappiness and physical suffering. An undtie preponderance of the emotional is its prevailing characteristic. Scott complained that it was toe poetical, that it contained too many flowers and toe little fruit. Many of her short poems, such as The Treasures of the Deep, The Better Land, The Homes of England, Casabianca, The Palm Tree, The Graves ofa Household, The Wreck, The Dying Improvisatore, and The Lost Pleiad, have become standard English lyrics. It is on tht strength of these that her reputation must rest. or HELA HEL HEMEL HEMPSTEAD
