Alfred Lord Tennyson - audio recording also on a wax cylinder from 1890 - reading The Charge of the Light Brigade (poor sound quality, unfortunately.)

Thank you for that! I had a look for other poets reading their own works and came across these two.

Yeats reciting "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" with a nice long intro.

Frost reciting "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening"
