Journals of Dorothy Wordsworth, Vol. 1 (of 2)
·
Dorothy Wordsworth
12
XII
In
1828,
Dorothy
Wordsworth
went
to
the
Isle
of
Man,
accompanied
by
Mrs.
Wordsworth's
sister
Joanna,
to
visit
her
brother
Henry
Hutchinson.
This
was
a
visit,
earlier
by
five
years
than
that
which
the
poet
took
with
his
sister
to
the
Isle
of
Man,
before
proceeding
to
Scotland,
a
tour
which
gave
rise
to
so
many
sonnets.
Of
the
later
tour
she
kept
no
Journal,
but
of
the
earlier
one
some
records
survive,
from
which
a
few
extracts
have
been
made.
In
conclusion,
I
must
mention
the
special
kindness
of
the
late
Mrs.
Wordsworth,
the
daughter-in-law
of
the
poet,
and
of
Mr.
Gordon
Wordsworth
his
grandson,
in
granting
free
access
to
all
the
Journals
and
MSS.
they
possessed,
and
now
possess.
Without
their
aid
the
publication
of
these
volumes
would
have
been
impossible.
