There is a difference of opinion concerning themountains intended by Wordsworth, in ITie Excursion, where he says, I could not, ever and anon, forbear To glance an upward look on two huge Peaks.

I have to express my heartiest thanks to the friends who have favored me with helpful sugges-tions in preparing this little book for the press. I am under many obligations for encouragementand advice to Prof. Knight of St. Andrews, Scotland, the founder and upholder of the Words-worth Society, the author of much valuable Wordsworth literature, as well as the most completeedition of the Poems.
