Samuel Rogers : Human Life
'Rogers is in an indescribable agony about his poem. The Hollands have read and like it. The verses on Paestum are said to be beautiful. The whole poem is not more than 800 lines. Fazackerly thinks it poor meagre stuff; Luttrell approves it; I have not seen it'.

George Gordon Lord Byron : Memoirs
'During the period that Mr. Moore had been in negotiation with the Longmans and Murray respecting the purchase of the Memoirs [of Byron], he had given "Lady Holland the MS. to read." Lord John Russell also states, in his "Memoirs of Moore," that he had read "the greater part, if not the whole," and that he should say that some of it was too gross for publication. When the memoirs came into the hands of Mr. Murray, he entrusted the Memoirs to Mr. Gifford, whose opinion coincided with that of Lord John Russell. A few others saw the memoirs, amongst them Washington Irving and Mr. Luttrell.'
