Elizabeth Barrett : Poems
Sara Coleridge to John Kenyon, 1844: 'I return with thanks the Poems of Miss Barrett, which I now always mention in high terms to any of my acquaintances, whenever the conversations [sic] affords an opportunity. I think my favourites are the "Poet's Vow," "A Romance of the Ganges," "Isobel's Child" (so like "Christabel" in manner, as mamma and I both thought), "The Island," "The Deserted Garden," and "Cowper's Grave" [goes on to criticise work in further detail]'.
