SD1898.  Arthur Hugh Clough to William Allingham

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 22, 267 (in part).

Council Office,

14th January [1856].

Dear Allingham,—Many thanks; and many happy new years to you also, though I must apologize for sending the good wishes so late. …

I have only seen Browning, in extracts, as yet. “Fra Lippo” I liked; but some of the passages seemed to be in his most reckless, de-composite manner—dashing at anything and insisting that it would do.

Text: Letters to William Allingham, ed. H. Allingham and E. Baumer Williams (London, 1911), pp. 159–161.
