Synopsis
Excerpt from Tennyson: 1809-1909; A Lecture
In 1842 he put his money into a scheme which failed, the details of which he writes to my grandfather, and in 1845 Peel gave him a Civil List Pension of 200.
In the year 1844 Cecilia Tennyson was married to Edmund Lushington, Professor of Greek at the University of Glasgow. In 1847 The Princess came out; but its lovely songs were only added to the third edition in 1850.
These beautiful songs mark the happy year of the Poet's marriage and the completion of In Memoriam, and his oh taining the laureateship, a veritable Annus Mirabilis.
