| Evidence: | Elizabeth Barrett to Richard Hengist Horne, 22 December 1843:
'I never saw [John Sterling']s book, although I have read many of his poems in Blackwood. He
falls, to my apprehension, into the class of respectable poets: good sense & good feeling,
somewhat dry & cold, and very level smooth writing, being what I discern in him.' |
