Note 456 — A WORDSWORTH BIBLIOGRAPHY

Frequently republished. After 1851 The Prelude was included. The edition of 1869 has “nine additional poems,” dated 1846. All the editions which I have seen contain an engraving by Mr. Finden from the bust of Wordsworth by Chantrey—the original of which is at Coleorton Hall—and a picture of Rydal Mount engraved by Mr. House after Finden.

Skelton, replaces Chantrey’s bust.” In this edition, as in that of 1815, Wordsworth gave dates to his poems.—Ed.
