Love George.. always loved dogs... many times they show us we're not as clever or smart as we think....will never forget our Mum telling us only two things give us unconditional love, Your Mum and your dog. She was spot on....
Stoked fire....hearth....a poets contribution read...time stands still...we listen...warm, cosy, and contented...memories of days gone by...evening rest...Thanking you Malcolm...and to others sharing comments on this channel...thank you...nice to be around others that love poetry, writing, a lovely home and to be relaxed in company...thanks from NZ...
Superb, thank you so much for this wonderful reading and discussion on Keats great poem. And what a beautifully illustrated publication to read from. Here in Dublin, in the Hugh Lane Gallery we have the famous stained glass window, by the artist Harry Clarke...The Eve of Saint Agnes, commissioned by Harold Jacob, a member of one of the great Quaker families who provided so much employment in Ireland, Jacob Biscuits. If you ever visit Dublin treat yourself to a visit to this Art Gallery, located on Parnell Square. I love your channel, thank you Reverend/Professor Guite for sharing your talents on this great facility that is RUclips ✨👏👏👏✨
Wine, a hearty fire on St Agnes Eve A pipe awaits outside the sacred lounge And Malcolm reads to us And nightmares of English winters past Become fond nostalgia A hope of another January to come Or something like that. Thanks for reading to us around the world. Edit: Apologies. In my spontaneous combustion of the poem, l forget the hound.
Anthony love your poem...I love soaking up the words...the forms, the letters floating like leaves down onto the page or in this case on the computer page. Not the same. and I have a typewriter I love to type out poems on...the sound is magnificent to the ear...thanks again...
George looks just like the dog illustrations in my copy of where the blue begins by Morley. I bought that book because I recently started embracing the authors and poets you read. Absolutely beautiful reading.
I'm very much enjoying your videos. I have what may seem a strange request. Can you please tell me who makes the vests that you wear? They appear to be comfortable and functional. All the best.
This is one of my favorite channels and I watch Malcolm 4-6 days a week if I can. Thank you Rev. Guite for inspiring me to study poetry. But I still can't fathom Keats. Seriously, i got over his adolescent wet dreams some 40 years ago. Real people are not like this and living with real people is so much better than the creepy idyllic vision in this poem. He dreamed of sneaking into her room while she chocked on a nightingale and then there's blood of kings and queens?? She loosens her fragrant bodice? Not look behind or all the charm is fled? What better way to describe the machinations in the mind of a peeping Tom? And then she passes out from opium? She wakes up with some creep who stole her guitar singing in her ear and thinks he's the man of her dreams?? Keats is honored by many people and institutions that I respect, so hopefully I am misunderstanding.
I think you may be misunderstanding. This poem is more like Romeo and Juliet than #metoo It is clear that she really loves him and he has taken real risks to meet and rescue her
@@MalcolmGuitespell Well, I never understood Romeo and Juliet either. But than again I never really understood much about any poetry until I started watching this channel. So I'll keep trying. Thank you!
I wonder if your edition was inspired by the 1937 Nonesuch Press edition of The Illustrations of William Blake for Thornton's Virgil with the First Eclogue and the Imitation by Ambrose Philips, introduced by Geoffrey Keynes. "Printed in Great Britain at the Curwen Press Plaistow." The design on the boards looks very similar to those of your book, which may be a bit larger than the one I have, copy No. 501 of 1000, a birthday present about 20 years ago. ...Nice to see George again.
May I dare inquiring with you Malcolm if would there be any sort of interest in you to review the sonnets I have published recently. My mother tongue is spanish, but my second one has been english for a good number of years. Hope this doubt harms not your soul... My name is Cesar Delgado-Guembes, and I live in Lima, Peru.
Thank you for asking Cesar but I'm afraid I have already been sent so many manuscripts and books to review that I just cant manage to take on anymore at the moment
When you tell George he has a sagacious eye he gives a big smile. That was cute to see.
Love George.. always loved dogs... many times they show us we're not as clever or smart as we think....will never forget our Mum telling us only two things give us unconditional love, Your Mum and your dog. She was spot on....
The most underrated account on youtube.
Agreed!
I just love Malcolm. His sermons are so deep and thought-provoking. I wish he was my parish priest (not to put down the one we have).
With this strong voice and interpretation the poem shines.

Thanks for listening
❤I absolutely love it ❤
A cosy fire and a ponderous line, a fruity vintage of fine wine, the evening creeps in the dimming light, the only thing missing is the pipe 😂😂😂😂

"silken-sheeted space". I likes it, I does
Wine, a hearty fire on St Agnes Eve
A pipe awaits outside the sacred lounge
And Malcolm reads to us
And nightmares of English winters past
Become fond nostalgia
A hope of another January to come
Or something like that. Thanks for reading to us around the world.

Delightful! Thank you.

Your channel is always a pleasure to pass and enjoy! It really makes my day whenever I watch one. Keep up the good work!
Selbst auf einem Handy kommt eine tiefe Gemütlichkeit
Man möchte dabei sein und in einer Ecke im Sessel sitzen, den Hund kraulen und zuhören
Another excellent video, and a pleasant way to spend my morning eating breakfast. Thankyou again
This is SUPERB.
Glad to be here 🖤
Sleep well George! Thankyou for sharing again Malcolm, surprisingly, it is cold(ish) here in Australia also.
Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.
Thank you so much for this lovely sharing! I so wish I could have sat with you as my tutor, but these RUclips videos and your blog will do!
thanks
Beautiful setting for a beautiful poem. Such a warm, welcoming living room with a nice fire in the midst of cold January.
Thank you kindly!
Thank you for posting this. Enjoyed every moment of you reciting such a beautiful masterpiece.
Glad you enjoyed it!
i love this channel so much ❤
Absolutely fantastic.

George does have a sagacious eye if I dont say so myself.
Lovely.
What a cozy room ... I love your vids Mr Malcolm, don’t always understand but I do ALWAYS come away with a smile 😊! Thanks for that
More George please, Malcolm!
Absolutely beautiful house. You’re blessed sir, very blessed.
I'm very much enjoying your videos. I have what may seem a strange request. Can you please tell me who makes the vests that you wear? They appear to be comfortable and functional. All the best.
I get them from different places but many of them are labelled Gurteen Esquire

Do you know where that edition can be purchased?
I was just thinking your fantastic channel would be even better with readings by the fire - and here you are! More fireside chats, please! Wonderful.
More to come!
A warm fire and a beautifully read piece with a delightful discussion. Thank you good sir :)

what a wonderful book to possess and you may be right about the inspiration
My mind reel with the depth of meaning relayed in such beauty.
What a wonderful video. I wish we could have had the whole book. Thank you.
Would love to see the person behind the Camera
that is my wife Maggie, who kindly agrees to act as proxy for your visits!
@@MalcolmGuitespell she does a great job sir!
Absolutely wonderful hope you are both well .simone 💖🙌🕊
