William Walsham How

1823–1897

William Walsham How (1823–1897) was an English Anglican bishop and hymn-writer.

The poems here are taken from Alfred H. Miles (ed.), The Poets and the Poetry of the Century (London: Hutchinson, 1891–1897), vol. 10, from the Internet Archive scans of that edition. Spelling is that of the anthology; Miles's biographical essay and extracts from longer poems are omitted, and only poems that could be read cleanly from the scan are included.

Poems (3)

  1. Jesus at the Door
  2. And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead.
  3. The New Jerusalem
