First Sentence edit
A reader who browses through Romantic Hallmarks will hear, not so much the themes - those develop through later sections - as the voices and the tones of Romantic poetry: 'Ah, hills beloved . . .', 'In Xanadu did Kubla Khan . . .', 'Oft had I heard of Lucy Gray . . .', 'And did those feet in ancient time . . .', 'On with the dance, let joy be unconfined . . .', 'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness . . .', 'I remember, I remember . . .', 'Abou Ben Adhem, may his tribe increase. . .'. This is what Romanticism is like, this is what makes it so touching and special.
