Harriet, Countess Granville, to her sister, Lady Carlisle (April 1834):
'The anxiety of the last two months has given me an impossibility of feeling happy [...] I make
to myself all sorts of reproaches. I read in a little book I like, Mrs. Fry's last, "Fear is not
sorrow."'

Harriet, Countess Granville, to her sister, Lady Carlisle (April 1834):
'The anxiety of the last two months has given me an impossibility of feeling happy [...] The
only thing that calms my nerves is sitting at an open window, reading Mrs. Fry or Adams'
"Private Thoughts;" but my religion is like my feeling, and I do not find its influence when I
have the immediate occupation of it.'
