Coleridge, Southey and Wordsworth

by James McIntyre 1827–1906

From Poems (1889)

Arts & Sciences

England had triplets at a birth,
Coleridge, Southey and Wordsworth,
And these three are widely famed,
And the "Lake Poets" they were named.
With joy they did pursue their themes,
'Mong England's lakes and hills and streams,
From there with gladness they could view
The distant Scottish mountains blue.
