ABSTRACT

Wordsworth, Thanksgiving Ode (1816); Champion, Oct. 20, 1816, pp. 334-335. The “Cartoons” mentioned in the second paragraph are Raphael’s designs for tapestries on biblical themes. The “thick pamphlet-looking work, with blue covers,” that the reviewer asks his readers to keep out of sight while overcoming their prejudice against Wordsworth was the Edinburgh Review.
