ABSTRACT

Byron, Childe Harold, III (1816); Christian Miscellany, II (June 1817), 270-277; (July 1817), 317-324. The reviewer is torn between his strong admiration for Byron’s genius and his orthodox regrets that Byron’s muse is not as chaste and religious as Cowper’s (p. 272). On pages 273 and 277 the critic alludes to bigotted attacks on Byron in another, unnamed religious publication.
