Evidence: | Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 13 October 1841:
'I have not heard from Mr Horne since he wrote to me of Martinuzzi .. A friend of mine, Mrs
Orme (who lived with us once as my governess & my sisters',) promised to procure for me
from Dr Stone [friend of Horne's] a copy of Martinuzzi which he had marked the margin of,
with "great laughter", "peals of laughter", as the spectators laughed where they ought to have
cried [...] It was a transcript of the impressions of the first night.' |
