rebeccazh's review against another edition
Only read certain lyric sections for my course; some of the lyric sections were lovely and really stayed with me. Others, less so.

The poem had some beautiful lines and images but overall I did not like the poem as it did not evoke the emotional I expected and hoped for. Moreover, I found the reflections on science and religion tiresome and conservative.

This is still one of the best poems I've ever read. My favorite part is number 6: "One writes, that 'Other friends remain'".

Did not read the whole poem, but substantial parts of it, including one of the essays.
