"Poets die young because they live young. They live feverishly and impetuously, their passions con suming their bodily powers. The worlds best poetry has been writ ten by men under thirty years of age. Poets who have died young have not died prematurily, because as a rule their finest work was done by the time they were thirty-five at the most," he explained. As examples of poets who have produced their masterpieces be fore the deadline, Dr. Babcock named Keats, who died at 26; Bryon at 36, Shelly at 39, Stephan Crane at 28, Marlow at 29, and Rus sell at 36. Though they lived to a ripe old age, Tennyson, Scott, Wordsworth, Kipling, Longfellow, Holmes, and Bryant wrote their best works while in their twenties and their early thirties. Illustrating the fact that adver sity fosters achievement, he re lated how 0 Henry learned to write while in the penitentiary.
