Elizabeth Carter to Catherine Talbot, 14 February 1754: 'Did you ever read a little French book called Theorie des Sentimens Agreables? [...] I have some curiosity about it, from hearing a very ingenious and good kind of man say it always made him form resolutions of amendment.'
Catherine Talbot to Elizabeth Carter, 16 March 1754: '"Theorie des Sentimens Agreables" I have read some years ago, and quite forget. It made no deep impression upon me, but that may be my fault.'
