Right?! There are definitely poets who predicted their undying fame and more or less nailed it, but Southey may have been a little too optimistic on that front.
Appreciated your critical commentary. A reminder that an author is human and as full of faults as the rest of us, deserving a critical eye and sometimes even "their faults condemned". Double irony that, thanks in part to this episode, Southey is remembered still. Well shared. Thanks.
Haha, he's so longsuffering. The only thing that might tick him off is knowing that after he goes to all that trouble to make me sound decent, I'm out here uploading the wrong files!
Call me average. This is the first time I had ever heard of Southey.

One of these days I’ll have a comment related to the poem 😂
