Overview

Robert Browning was a 19th century English poet and playwright. His mastery of the dramatic dialogue made him a leading author of the Victorian age. In 1846 he secretly marries Elizabeth Barrett. Elizabeth Barrett Browning is considered one of the great English poets. Christmas Eve is a complicated poem discussing the themes of faith and ones doubt. The poem begins, Out of the little chapel I burst Into the fresh night-air again. Five minutes full, I waited first In the doorway, to escape the rain That drove in gusts down the common's center At the edge of which the chapel stands, Before I plucked up heart to enter. Heaven knows how many sorts of hands Reached past me, groping for the latch Of the inner door that hung on catch More obstinate the more they fumbled.
