Three years later, the family moved to Hope End, near Ledbury in Herefordshire where they were to live for the next 23 years. The picturesque setting in a secluded valley near the Malvern Hills is reflected in Elizabeth's poetry throughout her life. In The lost bower , published in 1844, she recalls Green the land is where my daily steps In jocund childhood played, Dimpled close with hill and valley, Dappled very close with shade The original house at Hope End was soon demolished and replaced by an oriental structure, complete with turrets. The gardens were landscaped and the sumptuous effect became famous as a local tourist attraction.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday’s Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life!- and, if God choose, I shall but thee better after death.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning "Say over again" "Say over again" Say over again, and yet once over again, That thou dost love me. Though the word repeated Should seem "a cockoo-song," as thou dost treat it, Remember, never to the hill or plain, Valley and wood, without her cuckoo-strain 5 Comes the fresh Spring in all her green completed. Beloved, I, amid the darkness greeted By a doubtful spirit-voice, in that doubt's pain Cry, "Speak once more thou lovest!" Who can fear Too many stars, though each in heaven shall roll, 10 Too many flowers, though each shall crown the year? Say thou dost love me, love me, love me toll The silver iterance! only minding, Dear, To love me also in silence with thy soul. Sonnets from the Portuguese, No.21 Back to Index Page Mitsuru Watanabe

Elizabeth Barrett Browning Elizabeth Barrett was born at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, England. Elizabeth was educated at home, learning Greek, Latin, and several modern languages at an early age. In 1819, her father arranged for the printing of one of her poems (she was 13 at the time.) In 1821, Elizabeth injured her spine as a result of a fall. When her brother died in 1838, she seemingly became a permanent invalid. She spent the majority of her time in her room writing poetry. In 1844, Robert Browning wrote to Elizabeth admiring her Poems . He continued to write to her and they were engaged in 1845. Elizabeth's father disapproved of the courtship and engagement. In 1846, Elizabeth and Robert were secretly wed. Soon the couple ran off to Italy where Elizabeth's health improved. She continued to live in the villa of Casa Guidi for the remainder of her life. In 1850, Elizabeth's best known book of poems was published Sonnets from the Portugese . They are not translations, but a sequence of 44 sonnets recording the growth of her love for Robert. He often called her "my little Portuguese" because of her dark complextion. Elizabeth's poems have a diction and rhythm evoking an attractive, spontaneouse quallity though some may seem sentimental. Many of her poems protest what she considered unjust social conditions. She also wrote poems appealing for political freedom for Italy and other countries controlled by foreign nations.

ROBERT BROWNING ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING (1806-1861) T he love story of Robert Browning and Elisabeth Barret often reminds of the courtship and marriage of their contemporaries, Richard and Clara Schumann. In both romances a possessive father tries to prevent his daughter's match; in each case a sense of spiritual kinship, shared artistic purpose, and deep passion prevail over the obstacles, and, interestingly, in both stories it is the woman who is the more famous artist at the start of the relationship. Robert Browning enjoyed a privileged only-child existence, complete with excellent tutors, travel, and the leisure to pursue his literary inclinations. His early critical reception was eclipsed by that of Tennyson's. While his publication of PARACELSUS in 1835 did win him recognition, his next published work, SORDELLO (1840), met with such vituperation as to require almost two decades to repair his standing. It was during this period of emotional fragility that he read Elizabeth Barrett's 1844 poems. Elizabeth Barrett had received a classical education and displayed a literary gift from girlhood. Her first collection of poetry was so highly regarded that she was considered to succeed Wordsworth as Poet Laureate. Made an invalid as much by a back injury she suffered as a youth as by the controlling presence of her jealous father, EBB was a reclusive, bedridden spinster-poetess when Robert Browning initiated a correspondence with her in 1845. Their love letters, some of the most eloquent in the language, led to a meeting from which sprang up between them, despite the objections of her father and Elizabeth's own feelings of inadequacy for wifedom, an intense passion that led to their secret engagement and subsequent elopement to Italy in September 1846.
