England's Darling is a collection of poems written by Alfred Austin, who served as the Poet Laureate of England from 1896 until his death in 1913. The book was first published in 1896 and is a tribute to Queen Victoria, who was widely regarded as the darling of England during her reign. The poems in the book explore various aspects of Victoria's life, including her childhood, her marriage to Prince Albert, and her role as a mother and ruler. Austin also reflects on the political and social changes that occurred during Victoria's reign, such as the growth of the British Empire and the rise of industrialization. The poems are written in a traditional style, with a focus on meter and rhyme, and are intended to be read aloud. Overall, England's Darling is a celebration of Queen Victoria's life and legacy, as well as a reflection on the values and ideals of Victorian England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
