          <ptr target="ukred-16377">Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 10 August 1836:

"I can tell you [...] of [John Kenyon"s] having given himself a great deal of kind trouble in 
finding the Countess of Essex for me and of my reading it and Paracelsus besides which he 
also lent me.  As to the play, its talent may be both felt &amp; seen -- but felt &amp; seen [italics]in 
parts[end italics] [...] But have you seen Paracelsus?  I am a little discontented even 
[italics]there[end italics], &amp; wd wish for more harmony &amp; rather more clearness &amp; 
compression [...] but I do think that the pulse of poetry is full &amp; warm &amp; strong in it [...] There 
is a palpable power! a height &amp; depth of thought, -- &amp; sudden repressed gushings of 
tenderness which suggest to us a depth beyond, in the affections.  I wish you wd read it, &amp; 
agree with me that the author is a poet in the holy sense.  And I wish that some passages in 
the poem referring to the divine Being had been softened or removed.  They sound to me 
daringly; and [italics]that[end italics] is not the appropriate daring of genius."
