John Murray to Byron (c. January 1816): 'I enclose Ward's note after reading the "Siege of Corinth." I lent him "Parisina" also, and he called yesterday to express his mind at your hesitation about their merits [...] I lent Parisina to Mr. Hay (Mr. Wilmots friend) last night, and I enclose his note. I send the proof [...] I will send a revise of "Corinth" to-night or to-morrow.'
