They were my friends, 'twas sad to part; Almost a tear began to start; But yet as things run on they find That out of sight is out of mind. For men that will not idlers be Must lend their hearts to things they see; And friends who leave them far behind, Being out of sight are out of mind. I do not blame; I think that when The cold and silent see again, Kind hearts will yet as erst be kind, 'Twas out of sight was out of mind. I knew it, when we parted, well, I knew it, but was loth to tell; I knew before, what now I find, That out of sight was out of mind.

  • "This is a long and readable essay setting Clough in his time" - Jane Gardam, The Spectator
  • "Told in isolation, the rather anodyne events of Clough's life might fit comfortably into ninety-six small pages, but his poetic achievement (and the latter is undoubtedly his primary claim on posterity) requires much more room for manoeuvre than can be attained in a work only marginally longer than Clough's own Bothie . Nevertheless, the book is an enjoyable prolegomena to Clough, because it gives a flavour of the good humour and irony that make his poetry so readable" -

Rugby Authors
Express links: House s Departments Games ... Activities Thomas Arnold (1795-1842) Arnold's writings fall into three main groups: diaries, letters, and sermons - the latter being notable for their capacity to get through to pupils; articles, often controversial, on educational and theological issues, and his contributions to classical knowledge, particularly his massive commentary on Thucydides's History of the Peloponnesian War (1830-35) , and A History of Rome (1838-42) . He found writing history a relief from the mundane pressures of School business, and was praised by others for his ability to draw out its contemporary relevance. See also this page on Dr Arnold Matthew Arnold (1822-88) He is equally famous for his verse and prose. Among his best-known poems are Dover Beach The Scholar Gypsy and Sohrab and Rustum (1853), and Rugby Chapel (1857), the lament on the death of Dr Arnold. His two chief prose works are Essays in Criticism Culture and Anarchy Matthew Arnold spent more than thirty-five years of his working life as an Inspector of Schools. He died of heart failure (an hereditary weakness) while running for a tram in Liverpool. Arthur Hugh Clough (1819-1861) Clough was Dr Arnold's prize pupil, and because his parents had emigrated to America, he spent many of his holidays with the Head Master's family, a situation perhaps less than ideal. At Oxford he failed to live up to academic expectations and his career was marred by religious doubts. In 1854 he married a cousin of Florence Nightingale, and on her return from the Crimea became her helper and personal secretary. In reality this imposing woman made Clough her dogsbody, and in 1860 his health broke under the strain. He died of a stroke in Florence a year later, and Matthew Arnold's

E-Poetry... ...is a regular WordWizard feature edited by Erik Kowal.
In 1828 Arthur Hugh Clough (1819-1861) was sent back to England from America (to which his father, a Liverpool cotton merchant, had emigrated) to be educated. At Rugby school he began a lifelong friendship with the headmaster's son, the future poet and critic Matthew Arnold. Afterwards he went to Oxford, eventually becoming a fellow of Oriel College. At that time Oxford dons were required to subscribe to the Thirty-Nine Articles relating to the beliefs of the Church of England. Clough's religious doubts prevented his doing so, and he resigned his fellowship in 1848. Clough's general scepticism about Victorian society, his loathing of the capitalist system and his awareness of class barriers recur often in his poetry. His discomfort is well-displayed in this mordant rewriting of the Ten Commandments to fit the morality of his time, published after he died in 1862.
