Description

Excerpt from Charles Lamb: Prose Poetry The answer was scarcely more readily to be guessed at from the man himself than from the essay, though he was in London at the time (his yearly holiday over), and living, in free commerce with his friends, where in those years he most loved to be, in the general noise and resort of all London the individual spot I like best in all this great city - among the theatres and dower-sellers of Covent Garden. Any one in the habit of traversing this region, says Barry Cornwall, by merely extending his walk a few yards into Russell-street might have noted a small spare man, clothed in black, who went out every morning and returned every afternoon, as regularly as the hands of the clock moved towards certain hours. You could not mistake him. He was some what stiff in manner, and almost clerical in his dress which indicated much wear. He had a long, melancholy face, with keen, penetrating eyes; and he walked with a short, resolute step, City-wards. He looked no one in the face for more than a moment, yet contrived to see everything as he went on. No one who ever studied the human features could pass by without recollecting his countenance it was full of sensibility, and it came upon you like a. New thought, which you could not help dweliing upon afterwards it gave rise to meditation and did you good. This small half-clerical man was - Charles Lamb.
