Evidence: | Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 12 November 1842:
'Mr Kenyon called yesterday [...] and he left Lady Blessington's Annual [...] The annual is
fuller of trash than usual I think, which is saying a good deal of ill. His own contribution
indeed is a very excellent & poetical paraphrase of Schiller's "Gods of Greece" -- & there is a
prose story by Mr Landor which has much beauty in his peculiar manner, -- & there is,
moreover, a graceful fairy story by Miss Garrow, which I prefer to her last year's ballad,
although retaining my opinion of the want of individuality & of power.'
