Lucy Gray
''Lucy Gray'' is a poem written by William Wordsworth in 1799 and published in his ''Lyrical Ballads''. It describes the death of a young girl named Lucy Gray, who went out one evening into a storm and was never found again.
==Background==
The poem was inspired by Wordsworth being surrounded by snow, and his sistermemory of a real incident that happened at Halifax.〔 Wordsworth explained the origins when he wrote, "Written at Goslar in Germany in 1799. It was founded on a circumstance told me by my Sister, of a little girl who, not far from Halifax in Yorkshire, was bewildered in a snow-storm. Her footsteps were traced by her parents to the middle of the lock of a canal, and no other vestige of her, backward or forward, could be traced. The body however was found in the canal."〔Wordsworth 1991 pp. 293–294〕 ''Lucy Gray'' was first published in Volume 2 of the 1800 edition of ''Lyrical Ballads''.〔Jones 1995 p. 9〕
