researcher and writer, most popular to the overall population for his pattern of

English countryside. He was one of the premier classicists of his age and has been
positioned as probably the best researcher who ever lived. One of his works is
entitled " W'hen I Was One-and-twenty’’.
The realization of the persona in the poem 'When I was one and twenty' is never to
give one's heart away in love as it is bound to be badly broken.
"When I Was One-and-Twenty" has one clear message about love: that it inevitably

the young speaker not to fall in love—because giving "the heart" away is "paid with
sighs a plenty" and "endless rue"
