Hopkins in Ireland surveying & building she’ll do anything — risk

she’ll do anything — risk everything — to protect the little boy

and the way is clear to mount a full-scale attack

and Scott's tech skills won't help him now

and middle and high schools

Hopkins in Ireland surveying & building she’ll do anything — riskGerard Manley Hopkins spent five unhappy years in Ireland before his death in 1889, during which time he wrote perhaps the most interesting group of all his poems. Although he is one of the most well known and liked of poets, he is still one of the least understood. This is a full length study of Hopkins's time in Ireland, when he was Professor of Classics at University College Dublin, and it is both a biography and a critical account of the poetry.
