5. Born on August 6, 1809, in Somersby, Lincolnshire,
England, Alfred Tennyson is one of the most well-loved
Victorian poets. Tennyson, the fourth of twelve
children, showed an early talent for writing. At the age
of twelve he wrote a 6,000-line epic poem.
Tennyson wrote a number of phrases that have become
commonplaces of the English language, including:
"Nature, red in tooth and claw", "It's better to have
loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all",
"Theirs not to reason why, / Theirs but to do and die",
"My strength is as the strength of ten, / Because my
heart is pure", "Knowledge comes, but Wisdom
lingers", and "The old order changeth, yielding place to
new". He is the ninth most frequently quoted writer in
The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations after Shakespeare
and others.
In 1859, Tennyson published the first poems of Idylls of
the Kings, which sold more than 10,000 copies in one
month. In 1884, he accepted a peerage, becoming Alfred
Lord Tennyson. Tennyson died in 1892 and was buried
in Westminster Abbey.

9. The Brook suddenly emerges and flows through
the mountains and valleys, creating a lot of noise. It
streams through mother nature, sparkling among
ferns
and petals. It rushes in high speed through hills,
ridges, towns and villages. At last, it joins the
brimming river at Philip ‘s farm. It flows on forever
unlike men who come and go. Colours like silver and
golden are used while describing the surrounding
amidst which flows the brook. The flows is very
enthusiastic and jovial spreading positive vibes about
the brook. Thus, on this journey of the brook it
meets many things and visits many places, fulfilling

16. The poet has realistically drawn a parallelism between the
journey of the brook with the life of a man. The poet says as
in the childhood a child is very agile, energetic and lively ,
like that only the brook in the beginning stage of its life is
very powerful, enhancing and it keeps on flowing with a
great rush and enthusiasm throughout its life .it falls from
great heights and menders around the wavy path, and when
it approaches on plain it becomes very slow and continues to
flow eternally .like the brook a man toward the end of his life
he becomes slow in his moves and ultimately meets the horns
of death and the brook also emerges with its final destination
but it never ends to flow.
