E330608A. Prometheus Bound.

The Athenæum, 8 June 1833, p. 362.

As reprinted in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 3, 338.

“Touch the Hospitaller’s shield; he has the least sure seat,—he is your cheapest bargain;”—was the good counsel given by the people at Ashby to Ivanhoe. With the same considerate feeling we advise those who adventure in the hazardous lists of poetic translation, to touch any one rather than Æschylus; and they may take warning by the author before us.
