George Dyer : The Poet’s Fate, a Poetical Dialogue
Robert Southey to Joseph Cottle, 9 April, 1797: 'George Dyer gave me what he calls his “crotchet” & what I call an indifferent poem. “I could not bring in Wordsworth & Lloyd & Lamb in the poem (said he to me) but I put them in in a note —.” that man is all benevolence — he even shows it in notes to his dedication.'

George Dyer : Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Robert Robinson
Robert Southey to John May, 4 June, 1797: 'The books with me are more than I wish when moving, & fewer than I want when settled. whilst I was packing them up, a friend brought me Robinsons Ecclesiastical Researches. he has as much wit as Jortin & yet never ceases to be serious, & with erudition at least equal to Mosheim, possesses a candour & discrimination which Mosheim wanted. have you read George Dyers life of Robert Robinson? it is the history of a very extraordinary man told with infinite simplicity by one as extraordinary as himself.'
