Elizabeth Barrett : An Essay on Mind
Mary Russell Mitford to Lady Dacre, 3 July 1836, on Elizabeth Barrett: 'The "Essay on Mind" which she sent me [...] was written before she was seventeen -- It is a wonderful production -- with notes as full of learning as those to the Prometheus. Henry Cary [...] was reading it here yesterday -- & declared that she had read books and alluded to them familiarly as if read by every body that the young men at Oxford in his day ever thought of looking into.'
