Additional horizontal crease, some soiling at the folds, very good. Adelaide Anne Proctor was one of the most popular English poets; the favorite of Queen Victoria, her poems first appeared when she was a teenager in Dickens' periodicals *Household Words* and *All the Year Round*, and later in women's and feminist journals. She was also a philanthropist who worked tirelessly to better the lot of poor women (it is suggested that her ceaseless efforts might have resulted in her death). Proctor enjoyed an intense relationship with the novelist and translator Matilda Hays, who dressed in men's clothing. There is some speculation they had a romantic relationship, and Proctor never married. Dismissed by critics, she nevertheless was greatly popular until her death at age 38 in 1864.
