Evidence: | Thomas Westwood to Elizabeth Barrett, 28 January 1844:
'For the Dramas [of Richard Hengist Horne], we owe you many thanks -- we have read them
all, & admired them all [...] I confess I have formed an almost higher opinion of Mr Horne's
genius from them, than from "Orion" [poem] [...] "Delora["] too, has many fine passages, --
and I should be more particular in adverting to them & others, were it not that your own pencil
has forestalled me, so that my encomiums would be, in most cases, but a reiteration of your
own [goes on to reflect upon pleasures of reading annotations by others in books]'.
