"Poems 'Bound Each to Each' in the 1815 Edition of Wordsworth,"
The Wordsworth Circle, 12 (1981), 133-40.
These pages trace out a proposal to explain the structure of the
first collected edition of Wordsworth's poems (1815). This structure
remained substantially intact in the later collections. The 1815
edition was thought of as a single work, to be read from cover to
cover. The broad outline is from childhood to old age, but tucked
within the adulthood section is a sequence of mental faculties, from
the affections to the understanding and judgment.
