| Evidence: | Arthur Hallam to Alfred Tennyson:
'I have been reading Mrs Jameson's Characteristics, and I am so bewildered with similes about groves and violets, and streams of music, and incense and attar of roses, that I hardly know what I write. Bating these little flummeries of style, it is a good book, showing much appreciation of Shakespeare and the human heart'. |
