Excerpt from Tait's Edinburgh Magazine for 1844, Vol. 11 Lord J eft'rey frankly owns, that he has said, in his time, petulant and provoking things of Mr. Southey, and such as he would not say now but he is not conscious that he was ever unfair to Southey's poetry. It may be freely admitted, that if there was a bias, the critic was unconscious of it and also that Southey's changes of opinion, united with his tone of intolerance and dogmatism, were, for the moment, beyond measure provoking, and even worthy of chastisement. The only review of Southey's poetry reprinted is the last written that of Roderick the Last of the Goths. The juxta-posi tion of the poetical critiques in the volume is nu fortunate. So much praise of Rogers and Moore; not that the criticism on the latter is not acute and discriminating and so much depreciation of R0 derick, and The White Doe, and The Excursion, must still be a little irritating to some folks.
