THE MOTHER oFsLORD BYRON

Lord Byron was afflicted with a club
foot and when young he submitted to
somesvery painful operations to have
the deformity removed, but with no.
success. His mother was prDcd, pas
sionate and wicked woman, and even
The yearnings Of natural affection seem
ed slifled. There Is no good proof
that her son naturally had worse dis"
position than any eother children, for
good or evil, waiting only to be quick,
ened into life. Let us see the influence
his mother exerted ON this brilliant and
powerful mind.
The readers Of Byron's life must
have sbuddered 10 hear him speak OF
Ibis mother. Moore, the biographer Of
Byron, speaks three Times of this fact,
and the passages are 50 remarkable
that will transcribe them literally
| The first is brief but significant.
| On the subject ofns deformed foot
Byron described the feeling of horror
land humiliation that came over him
when his mother, in one Of her hts oi
passion, called him a "lame brot."
But IN the caseof Lord Byron, ,dIsapoint
neut met him at the very threshold .
life. His mother to whom his atfectl
ons FIRST naturally and with order turn
ed, either repelled them rudely. or ca.
pric,ously trifled with them.
III speaking Of his early days TO
friend at Genoa, a short time before hi
departure from Greece, he traced hi
first feelings Of pain and humiliation t.
the cold,less in infancy, and the fire
quent taunts on his deforlnity will
which she wounded him."
This passage, found on the LAG pag'
lis only excelIed in dreadfulness'by th'
following on the l9Sth psse:
"He had spoken Of his mother t
T.old Sligo, and with feeling tina
seemed little short of aversion. Som
