Winifred Howells

Winifred Howells (1863–1889) was the eldest daughter of the novelist William Dean Howells, and wrote a small body of verse before her early death. She is a different person from her father, whose poems are filed separately here.

The poems here are taken from Edmund Clarence Stedman’s An American Anthology, 1787–1900 (Boston and New York: Houghton, Mifflin and Company, 1900).
