From Thomas Carlyle: A History of His Life in London, 1834 - 1881, by James Anthony Froude
TENNYSON
"A fine, large-featured, dim-eyed, bronze-coloured, shaggy-headed man is Alfred; dusty, smoky, free and easy, who swims outwardly and inwardly with great composure in an inarticulate element of tranquil chaos and tobacco smoke. Great now and then when he does emerge -- a most restful, brotherly, solid-hearted man."
From Chapter VII
