Description:
There are no fewer than seventeen manuscripts of The Prelude in the Wordsworth library at Grasmere. Working with these materials, the editors have prepared an accurate reading version of 1799 and have newly edited from manuscripts the texts of 1805 and 1850”thus freeing the latter poem from the unwarranted alterations made by Wordsworth's literary executors. The editors also provide a text of MS. JJ (Wordsworth's earliest drafts for parts of The Prelude) as well as transcriptions of other important passages in manuscript which Wordsworth failed to include in any fair copy of his poem. The texts are fully annotated, and the notes for all three versions of The Prelude are arranged so that each version may be read independently. The editors provide a concise history of the texts and describe the principles by which each has been transcribed from the manuscripts. There are many other aids for a thorough study of The Prelude and its background. A chronological table enables the reader to contextualize the biographical and historical allusions in the texts and footnotes. "References to The Prelude in Process" presents the relevant allusions to the poem, by Wordsworth and by members of his circle, from 1799 to 1850. Another section, "Early Reception," reprints significant comments on the published version of 1850 by readers and reviewers. Finally, there are seven critical essays by Jonathan Wordsworth, M. H. Abrams, Geoffrey H. Hartman, Richard J. Onorato, William Empson, Herbert Lindenberger, and W. B. Gallie.

Best sheets ever!
Color: 01 - Ivory, Size: Queen
These are the softest sheets I have found for a great price! The added corner straps are super for my adjustable bed! I highly recommend these sheets. Deep pocket corners allow for my foam topper too. I'm definitely going to buy more of these!

Great Organic Choice!
Color: 01 - Ivory, Size: Queen
These sheets are great, soft and the perfect amount of thickness! They are roomy and fit around my deep mattress. They will be a bit wrinkly out of the dryer, but they are cotton sheets so that is to be expected.
Hoping they don’t shrink like other organic sheets I have had in the past. My only complaint is I wish they had more colors!

Feels a bit synthetic
Color: 01 - Ivory, Size: Queen
I liked it, it’s not the softest but it’s soft, it feels silky as well but don’t know why is that not sure if it’s algodon mixed with plastic? Don’t know, when I touched it the first time I had the same sensation I get when I touch something that’s too synthetic. Still it’s soft and I want to trust that’s really organic and without harmful materials

So Comfortable
Color: 01 - Ivory, Size: Queen
I very much appreciate these are 100% organic cotton. These are comfortable & I wish were made in the Full size as well. Beautiful appearance & quality purchase. Easy to wash/dry & fit my deep pocket mattress with ease. Worth the price. (To my surprise, it’s got me thinking about replacing my linen sheet sets.)

Great sheets, wrong size
Color: 01 - Ivory, Size: King
I love the quality of these sheets, but we ordered a King set and were sent a Queen set. These were returned and another set sent to us. Same thing. Queen again. I would love to have a set of these sheets, but I'm not sure how to actually get a King set. Are these being packaged incorrectly by the manufacturer and then mislabeled? Has anyone else had this issue?
