“Thou could'st not feel my burning cheek,
Thy gushing tears had quench'd its flame,
And, as thy tongue essay'd to speak,
In sighs alone it breath'd my name.”

Excerpt from ‘To Caroline’, Byron, 1805.

#HamiltonFamily, sardine works, #Eastport. Father earns $1#5 to $#25 a week irregularly during the work season for #threemonths. Said that #20yearsago he made $#5 a day as a boy, cutting. The mother is a packer makes $#10 a week and upward, during the active season. Another boy, not in the photo, works also. In the front row are #GeorgeHamilton, #11yearsold, who cuts regularly--made a dollar in #threehours #theday before; #Byron, with a badly cut finger, earns #25 cents a day; little #Erna #8yearsold works at cartoning. The father is dissatisfied with the irregular income, but cannot see the connection between his early boyhood work and his present stagnation. He is putting his little ones through the same process. Location: #Eastport, #Maine.

George Gordon, Lord Byron – “half a Scot by birth, and bred / a whole one” – died #OTD, 19 April 1824

This poem was written in a letter sent to Thomas Moore from Venice in 1817, when Byron was feeling particularly shagged out after Carnevale…

A young man's sailing adventure across Europe.

His house, his home, his heritage, his lands,
The laughing dames in whom he did delight,
Whose large blue eyes, fair locks, and snowy hands,
Might shake the saintship of an anchorite,
And long had fed his youthful appetite;
His goblets brimmed with every costly wine,
And all that mote to luxury invite,
Without a sigh he left to cross the brine,
And traverse Paynim shores, and pass earth's central line.

- Excerpt from Childe Harold's Pilgrimage.

A slight #GothHunt tangent today: after they returned from Switzerland #shelley and Mary Godwin (as she still was) lived in #Bath for a while; while Mary appears to have lived at the Abbey Churchyard apartment she addressed her letters from 12 New Bond Street. Her half-sister Claire Clairemont did reside here, and gave birth to Byron’s daughter Allegra here. #poets #romantics #byron #gothic

I recently learned that Ada Lovelace was the daughter of Lord Byron and... I honestly had no clue!

"With seven heads and ten horns," and all in front,
Like Saint John's foretold beast; but ours are born
Less formidable in the head than horn
In the first year of Freedom's second dawn
Died George the Third; although no tyrant, one
