He was brought up by Robert Southey at Greta Hall, and studied at Merton College, Oxford, but forfeited an Oriel College fellowship by intemperance. He spent two years in London, tried taking pupils at Ambleside, occasionally writing for Blackwood's Magazine, lived for some time in Grasmere, then moved to Leeds, where he wrote biographies. He later returned to Grasmere, where he continued to write poetry. |
