And the reason lay in the persecution which overclouded his school- days. Of that persecution's effect upon him, he has left us, in The Revolt of Islam, a picture which to many or most people very probably seems a poetical exaggeration; partly because Shelley appears to have escaped physical brutality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
