ABSTRACT

Byron, Hours of Idleness (1807); review by Hewson Clarke, Satirist, I (Oct. 1807), 77–81. Hewson Clarke (1787–1832) had been Byron’s fellow-student at Cambridge in 1806. He and Byron carried their enmity into several later publications, most notably English Bards and Scotch Reviewers. Here Clarke is equally condescending to Thomas Moore (pp. 78–79).
