The Melody of Tennyson.

/ have seen it stated that Tennyson
himself considered his best single line to
be:
The mellow ouzel huted in the elm
Gardeners Daughter"
nearly ali rs.
The league-long roller laundering on the reef.
''Enoch Arden"
A splendid line, worthy of Virgil or Mil
ton. In this instance, however, 'r" con-
tributes as much as ''T' to the power and
beauty of the liue.
Then the three lines, of which Mrs.
Yardley quotes two, in 1.-THE Princess:
Myriads of rivulets hurrying thro the lawn,
The moan of doves in immemorial elmS,
And murmuring of innumerable bees.
Charles Kingsley praises these three lines
highly, as he well may.-Notes and Que
ries.
