Liddell : The Savoyard

Monday, 4 April 1831: 'Mr. Liddell and Hay Mackenzie left us this morning. Liddell shewd me yesterday a very good old fashioned poem worthy of Pope or Churchill in old fashioned hexameters, called "The Savoyard". He has promised me a copy for it is still being printed. There are some characters very well drawn. The force of it belies the author's character of a Dandie too hastily ascribed to its author.'
