William Wordsworth writes the "Two-Part
Prelude" of 1799 (corresponding roughly to books
I and II of the later full Prelude together with the Gibbet Mast and Blasted Hawthorn "spots of time"), "There Was a Boy," "Nutting," "Lucy Gray" and the "Lucy poems," the "Matthew" poems, and many poems for the 1800 volume of Lyrical Ballads. Most of these poems were composed while W. lived with Dorothy Wordsworth in Goslar, Germany, from the latter part of 1798 through the first part of 1799.
