About the book >.>.> The aberrations of that too erratic vagrant from the narrow way are a subject of real uneasiness and regret to me who have a regard for his genuine good qualities of character and genius. Let us my brethren while we drop a tear over the sheep now astray from the true fold of the Good Shepherd if not indeed irrevocably classed among the goats to be ultimately found on the left hand of the G.S. give thanks to a merciful Providence that we are not as this Israelite in whom if we have not been mistaken as to his character I fear there must be a good deal of guile. – Swinburne’s remarks already showing the self-righteous attitude he later adopted would be more acceptable if he had not in the same letter said that he would be charmed when he saw Powell to read the full history (in French periodicals which Powell had bought at his suggestion) ‘of the accomplished youth Master G?lignier’. This refers raised in his previous letter. (SP)
