Love Letters: Lord Byron

"Discover The Many Ways To Say 'I Love You'!"



lord byron


The next of our free love letters was written by Lord Byron (1788 - 1824), who was among the most famous of the English 'Romantic' poets. His contemporaries included Percy Shelley and John Keats. He was also a satirist whose poetry and personality captured the imagination of Europe. His major works include Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage (1812-18) and Don Juan (1819-24). He died of fever and exposure while engaged in the Greek struggle for independence. This letter is written to his future wife, Anna.


Lord Byron to his future wife Annabella, 1814.

My Heart -

We are thus far separated - but after all one mile is as bad as a thousand - which is a great consolation to one who must travel six hundred before he meets you again. If it will give you any satisfaction - I am as comfortless as a pilgrim with peas in his shoes - and as cold as Charity - Chastity or any other Virtue.
