Evidence:

Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 24 October 1844: 'I thought I had read only the [italics]third[end italics] volume of "Le Juif," -- but your fourth must be my third, for I have assuredly read the madhouse scene -- & a very fine thing it is [goes on to comment further upon specific episodes in novel] [...] I do wish I had the other volumes of the "Juif Errant" -- but I suppose they are not written yet.'
