Third Series. Bound by Spottiswoode & Co., with a bookbinder's label to the rear pastedown. Jean Ingelow was an English nineteenth century poet, novelist, and children’s author who began her literary career as a young girl, publishing poems in periodicals as a girl, under the pseudonym 'Orris', and later anonymously. Many of her long narrative poems were written in blank verse, with themes of Christian faith and romantic love relayed with a tenderness of emotion. Her work was widely read during her lifetime, and she was known for her charitable “copyright dinners,” in which she hosted her poorer neighbors for dinners paid for with the profits from her books.
