My Beautiful Lady. Nelly Dale
Transcribed from the 1887 Cassell & Company edition, David Price
"My Beautiful Lady. Nelly Dale" by Thomas Woolner is a poetic novel written in the late 19th century. The work delves into themes of love, beauty, and the profound impacts of loss and grief, seen through the eyes of a devoted lover. The central character is an unnamed speaker deeply enamored with his "Lady," who embodies both physical beauty and an ethereal quality that captivates him completely. The opening of the novel sets the tone for a reflective exploration of love, sorrow, and the complexity of human emotions. It begins with an introduction that expresses a belief in the noble pursuit of art and literature, framing the narrative as a powerful voice that should resonate with readers from all walks of life. The main character's profound love for his Lady is detailed through vivid imagery and emotional depth, capturing moments of beauty and heartbreak as he contemplates their shared experiences. As the narrative unfolds, the speaker addresses themes of mortality and the bittersweet nature of love, hinting at future trials and the inevitable impact of loss on his life.
