Headlong Hall
CHAPTER I The Mail T HE AMBIGUOUS light of a December morning, peeping through the windows of the Holyhead mail, dispelled the soft visions of the four insides, who had slept, or seemed to sleep, through the first seventy miles of the road, with as much comfort as may be supposed consistent with the jolting of the vehicle, and an occasional admonition to remember the coachman , thundered through the open door, accompanied by the gentle breath of Boreas, into the ears of the drowsy traveller.
the day was none of the finest , having elicited a repartee of quite the contrary waterfall , in consequence of his having accompanied the water in its descent or diminution, till he found himself comfortably seated on the rocks of Llanberris. But, in later days, when commercial bagsmen began to scour the country, the ambiguity of the sound induced his descendants to drop the suspicious denomination of Riders , and translate the word into English; when, not being well pleased with the sound of the thing , they substituted that of the quality , and accordingly adopted the name Headlong , the appropriate epithet of waterfall.

    Thomas Love Peacock
    Thomas Love Peacock, -1866, English poet and satirist, friend and biographer of Percy Bysshe Shelley. Thomas Love Peacock was introduced to Shelley by the intellectual bookseller Thomas Hookham late in . The next summer he found Shelley and his wife Harriet living in his vicinity near Windsor , and they began to spend a considerable amount of time together. Peacock, an autodidact who had never attended university, was a keen student of Greek, and under his prodding Shelley soon became immersed in its study as well. Although he admired Mary Shelley , Peacock always kept a warm spot in his heart for the unpretentious but kind Harriet, and he is her chief champion among biographers. An earnest poet with neo-classical leanings, Peacock found his true metier as a writer of satirical, generally topical novels, begnning with Headlong Hall in and Melincourt in . He is best remembered for the next such novel, a sendup of Gothic literature and some of its chief contemporary exponents, including Coleridge and even his friend Shelley

    Thomas Love Peacock. The Legend of Saint Laura.
    Our most recent book (2000) is the first separate edition, and the first illustrated edition, of a ballad from Thomas Love Peacock’s novel, Gryll Grange , first published in 1860. In the ballad, the abbess of an unnamed convent, home to the tomb of Saint Laura (Peacock's invention), on her death bed insists on being buried in Saint Laura’s tomb. Woodcut from The Legend of Saint Laura: The convent reluctantly follows her wish. The abbess’s corpse is ejected twice, for "with the incorruptible/Corruption might not rest." On the third night, the saint leaves. The illustrations follow the narrative. The fourth woodcut shows something not mentioned by the poem, but which would have happened: the pilgrims asking at the convent door for the new location of St. Laura’s tomb, hoping to obtain alms and relief from physical ailments there. The saint is an imaginary one. Although n date or place is mentioned in the poem, the illustrations are set in fourteenth or fifteenth century Italy.

    Thomas Love Peacock
    Thomas Love Peacock was born at Weymouth, Dorset, and grew up in Chertsey, Surrey after his father's early death. He was educated privately after the age of thirteen and did not take paid employment until his mid-thirties when he worked as an official in the East India Company, retiring as their Examiner in 1856. He became a friend of Shelley in his late twenties and they enjoyed a literary relationship of mutual influence. He married in 1820 and had three daughters, whom he outlived. His novels are largely satirical with unusual social, political, and romantic themes. His poetry is mostly lyrical and also reflects his satirical, radical nature. Love and Age

    Love and Age
    When I was six and you were four;
    When garlands weaving, flower-balls throwing,
    Were pleasures soon to please no more.
    With little playmates, to and fro,
    But that was sixty years ago. You grew a lovely roseate maiden,
    And still our early love was strong;
    Still with no care our days were laden,
    They glided joyously along;
    And I did love you very dearly,
    How dearly words want power to show;
    But that was fifty years ago. Then other lovers came around you, Your beauty grew from year to year, And many a splendid circle found you The centre of its glittering sphere. I saw you then, first vows forsaking, On rank and wealth your hand bestow; But that was forty years ago. And I lived on, to wed another: No cause she gave me to repine; And when I heard you were a mother, I did not wish the children mine. My own young flock, in fair progression, Made up a pleasant Christmas row: My joy in them was past expression; But that was thirty years ago.

Although he ridiculed well-known figures of the Romantic movement - William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron and others - his verbal attacks did not arose open hostility. Usually Peacock assembled his characters in a country house, where they exchange opinions over a dinner table in a merry atmosphere. The 'Socratic dialogues' are leavened by songs, hilarious and extravagant episodes, and romantic love-plots. Beyond the sea, beyond the sea,
    My heart is gone, far, far from me;
    And ever on its track will flee
    My thoughts, my dreams, beyond the sea.

    (from Crotchet Castle Thomas Love Peacock was born at Weymouth, in Dorset, as the only son of a London glass merchant, who died in 1788. Peacock's grandfather was a master in the Royal Navy, and the young Thomas Love was brought up by his mother at Chertsey in his grandfather's house. Peacock was educated at a private school in Englefield Green. His formal schooling in Greek, Latin, and French ended before he was 13, but he read omnivorously throughout his life in five languages. With the help of a modest inheritance form his father, Peacock was able to live as a man of letters. In 1812 Peacock met Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822), who greatly inspired his writing. Later they were friendly antagonists. Peacock also became Shelley's literary executor after his death. Peacock was drawn through Shelley into a wider literary circle, but his knowledge of classical literature also helped the younger poet. Peacock's satirical essay on the value of poetry

    The Thomas Love Peacock Page
    Thomas Love Peacock at age 72 Thomas Love Peacock (1785-1866) is one of the most interesting as well as the most neglected of nineteenth century writers. His prose is intellectual and satirical, speaks only to the well educated and is unlikely to command a wide readership at the end of the twentieth century. Nevertheless, Peacock was a close friend of many major figures of his day, including Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822), both his wives Harriet Westbrook (who killed herself 1816) and Mary Godwin (1797-1851), Leigh Hunt (1784-1859), John Stuart Mill (1806-1873), Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) and many others. He was Shelley's literary agent during the latter's absence abroad from 1818 to his death in 1822, and afterwards was the executor of Shelley's will. Born at Weymouth on 18 October, 1785, he entered the service of the East India Company in 1819, and in 1820 married Jane Gryffydh, daughter of the rector of Maentwrog in Wales. His daughter married the novelist George Meredith (1828-1909). Peacock became Chief Examiner of Indian Correspondence in 1836, retired from the East India Company in 1856, and died at Halliford-on-Thames at the age of 81 on 23 January, 1866. Peacock wrote both prose and poetry, but is best known for the former. For a selection of the shorter poems, click here
