[a french artist]  : [his own poems]

'When the cigars came, Hoffmann was requested to read some of his poetry, and he gave us a bacchanalian poem with great spirit... little rain sent us into the house, and when we were seated in an elegant drawing room, opening into a large music salon, we had more reading from Hoffmann, and from the French artist who with a tremulous voice pitched in a minor key, read us some rather pretty sentimentalities of his own'.

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: George Eliot (pseud)      Manuscript: Unknown
