Volumes 1 to 4 of the 8 volume collection edited by William Knight, in a single file.These volumes include his finest and best-known poems (composed 1787-1813), including The Prelude. According to Wikipedia: 'William Wordsworth (1770 - 1850) was a major English Romantic poet who, with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, helped launch the Romantic Age in English literature with their 1798 joint publication, Lyrical Ballads. Wordsworth's magnum opus is generally considered to be The Prelude, a semi autobiographical poem of his early years which the poet revised and expanded a number of times. The work was posthumously titled and published, prior to which it was generally known as the poem 'to Coleridge'. Wordsworth was England's Poet Laureate from 1843 until his death in 1850.'
