[Most of the poems were written in the period between April 1917, when Hardwicke left Crosthwaite and went to live at Allan Bank in Grasmere, and June 1918, when he and Elanor were married. The poems were probably transcribed in the order they were written and received. To view the full text of a poem, click on its title below.]
