"Cold in the earth—and the deep snow piled above thee,
Far, far, removed, cold in the dreary grave!
Have I forgot, my only Love, to love thee,
Severed at last by Time's all-severing wave?"

How Wuthering Heights was shaped by Emily Brontë’s gothic poetry

Emily Brontë’s poetry is full of haunting love, grief and death.

Title page of the book Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell

Authors: Charlotte Brontë
Anne Brontë
Emily Brontë

A title page from an 1846 publication on aged cream paper. At the very top, a handwritten pencil inscription reads "Brontë Charlotte" in a casual, slightly slanted hand. The printed text is centered and typeset in a spare, classical style with generous spacing between elements. 
Below a small decorative wavy rule, the publication details appear at the bottom:
LONDON:
SMITH, ELDER AND CO., 65, CORNHILL.
1846.

The layout is minimal and elegant, with wide margins and abundant white space giving it a restrained, dignified character typical of mid-Victorian book design.

@raymaccarthy Perhaps he is a bit overshadowed by his daughters.
