Born in 1770, William Wordsworth was an English poet who helped launch the Romantic Age in English literature. His magnum opus is generally considered to be The Prelude, a semi-autobiographical poem of his early years that he revised and expanded a number of times. Wordsworth remains one of the most recognizable names in English poetry and was Poet Laureate from 1843 until his death from pleurisy on 23 April 1850. He was buried in St. Oswald's Churchyard where this box can be found.

Directions:
Go to St. Oswald's Churchyard at Church Stile and Red Bank roads.

Clues:
Walk behind the Cathedral into the cemetery, following a stone wall on the right to where it bends left at his grave. Continue on path 25 steps to a large multi-trunk tree on left next to grave stone for Thomas Sandford. Go to back side of tree and look for LB within its trunks 4' high under a rock & needles. Please be discreet.
