Romantic poets didn't tend to have long careers. Keats died in 1821, Shelley the year after in 1822, and Byron two years after that in 1824. They were aged 25, 29 and 36 respectively. Yikes!

Also exploring the poetry of James Hogg, with a lovely reading by Alan McClure in the original Scots. 

Check out his YouTube channel Tales Fae the Shed, and his children's book Callum and the Mountain.

Huge thanks also to my friend Jan for her help translating to English.
