Harriet, Countess Granville, to her sister Lady Georgiana Morpeth, 12 August 1818:
'Yesterday evening Granville [husband], Hart [her brother, the Duke of Devonshire] and I
looked over books. A beautiful edition of Camoens, brown and gold, with D. and the coronet
inlaid in diamonds. It is like a book in a fairy tale. The Duchess of Devonshire's editions of
Horace's journey. The prints are from beautiful drawings, one by herself.'
