SD2627.  Coventry Patmore to Caroline M. Gemmer

Published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 30, 356 (in part).

Northend, Hampstead,

Feb. 9th, 1867.

Dear Mrs. Gemmer,

Many thanks for your kind enquiries after us all. …

Mrs. Browning is gone, and Miss Procter is, I fear, unlikely ever to leave her bed again. You and Miss Rossetti are the only representatives of the late remarkable school of English poetesses. …

Text: Basil Champneys, Memoirs and Correspondence of Coventry Patmore (London, 1900), II, 236.
