Letter from Lord Byron

c. 1789

George Gordon, Lord Byron (1788-1824) became an undergraduate at Trinity in 1805. His early letters home were full of enthusiasm for college life, writing of his superb robes and being ‘most pleasantly situated in superexcellent rooms.’

This is the first letter Byron ever wrote, at the age of ten.

R.2.40a
