SD2254. Thomas Babington Macaulay to Thomas Flower Ellis

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 26, 355 (in part).

Holly Lodge

April 1, 1859

Dear Ellis,

How are you getting on? …

It is owing to me too, I must say on the other side, that he [George Trevelyan] lives in the very midst of an atmosphere reeking with Carlylism, Ruskinism, Browningism, and other equally noxious isms, without the slightest taint of the morbific virus. …

Ever yours

Macaulay
