Elizabeth Barrett to Edmund Henry Barker, 12 May 1829: 'You desire to have my remarks on Dugald Stewart versus Sir Uvedale [Price]. Some time ago I read Stewart's Essays; & I flattered myself, till this moment, that I recollected his arguments clearly enough, to be able to write upon them to you. But upon opening the book & turning over the pages, I find more pages [...] on the subject, than I recollected or reckoned upon: and this letter must not be kept till I can read & think them all over.'
