Robert Pollock : The Course of Time
Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 29 November 1842: 'I have read through Pollock's Course of Time, -- & I confess it appeared to me an extroardinary [sic] work for a young poet -- full of grand conceptions half formed -- & tracked everywhere with unequal staggering footsteps of genius.'
