een read with enthusiasm by young people at Concord and at Cambridge.
I, exhorting young poets with the mature enthusiasm of seventeen, bade them lay down their Spenser and their Tennyson and look within, and Professor Channing let it pass in the understanding that by Spenser I meant the highest authority, and by Tennyson, the loSpenser I meant the highest authority, and by Tennyson, the lowest.
This construction I refused with some indignation, for it was a capital passage of which I was quite proud and which had been written by my elder sister.
When I explained my real views — as to Tennyson, the kindly professor said, Ah, that is a different thing.
I wish you to say what you think.
I regard Tennyson as a greatspirit of the New World.
We need some repression, no doubt, as the Old World has never been backward in reminding us; but what we need still more is expression.

Be bold!
Be bold!
