E630600A.  Essays on the Greek Christian Poets and the English Poets (New York).

The Eclectic Magazine of Foreign Literature, June 1863, p. 263.

Listed in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 30, 369.

This beautiful little volume, added to Mrs. Browning’s previous books of verse, completes the publication of her works, and make five in uniform style with this book.

The simple announcement of this new volume from the gifted pen of the much-lamented authoress, will be enough to invite many of her admirers to procure this also, and add it to their choice collections. On these rich pages the reader will find gems of beautiful thought, clothed in affluent language, upon which the cultivated mind loves to dwell. This finished volume is suggestive of a feeling of regret that one who has done so much to enrich English literature has ended her useful labors and laid aside her pen forever.
