address on that subject, promising
his address by a brief sketch showing
the development of literature from

Victorian period Professor Marshall S
lecture was full of merit, his reviews
of the works of Coleridge and Words
worth being among the most meritor-
ious points.
Major Goodspeed showed his great
admiration Off Wordsworth by his open
ing remark, Many have placed Words
worth third in the list of great Eng
fish poets, Shakespeare ranking first
and Milton second, but as | am one OF
those heretics who believe that Shakes
peare never wrote one word OF the
thirty-six plays accredited to him, !
place Wordsworth second, in the inn
mortal ranks" After q, brief eulogy
of Wordsworth the major read extracts
from some of Wordsworth's most ia
nous poems.
