Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gathered Leaves From the Prose of Mary E. Coleridge For most people there is a beginning and an end. It is important to recall that they were born, and that they died at such and such a date. But to say of Mary Coleridge that she was born in September 1861, that she lived nearly forty-six years, and died in August 1907, means little. She was never of any age, and excepting that as life went on she grew and ripened, she was much the same at twenty as at forty. She seemed to belong to eternity rather than to time, and the years had hardly power to touch her. Her nature was woven of many complex threads, seeming to cross each other, yet forming a fine, close tissue. She was all poet, and three-quarters saint; she was holy, without the faintest tinge of puritanism; she was merry, without injury to her holiness. The background of her spirit was pensive, rather shrinking, often sad; but she delighted in gaiety and generally made a gay impression, because she possessed the rare gift of being in love with the moment, and was easily amused by things and people.
