George Crabe : Poems

'Out of a considerable quantity of garbage which I have allowed myself, at different intervals, to devour, I have only to mention Crabbes Poems as worthy of being read. In addition to great powers of correct description, he pos[s]esses all the sagacity of an anatomist in searching into the stormy passions of the human heart - and all the apathy of an anatomist in describing them.'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Thomas Carlyle      Print: Book
