After a few days' illness he died on the 27th of December,1834.The sudden death of one so widely known,admired and beloved,fell on the public as well as on his own attached circle with all the poignancy of a personal calamity and a private grief.His memory wanted no tribute that affection could bestow,and Wordsworth commemorated in simple and solemn verse the genius,virtues and fraternal devotion of his early friend.
