James Commeline to Elizabeth Barrett, 1 December 1827: 'Together with Mr Price's book, allow me to return you my best thanks for the perusal of it. Though written [...] with great elegance & felicity of composition, it really strikes me as a remarkable specimen of that order of architecture [...] of which all the parts are perfect in their kind, except the foundation [goes on to criticise work in detail].'
