8. 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.
