  In Memoriam

  Selections from Tennyson's great elegiac sequence for Arthur Henry Hallam — spanning the Prologue's address to "Strong Son of God," the dark-house vigil of canto VII, the faith-and-doubt crisis of cantos LIV–LVI, the Ring Out Wild Bells of CVI, and the wedding Epilogue that closes the seventeen-year mourning with new life.
