‘...the Quarterly [Review], under [John Gibson] Lockhart’s management, is very different from what it was under [William] Gifford, whose benevolence...certainly did not trickle through his pen. I do not think our cousin John [Taylor Coleridge] did himself much credit by some of his articles in that work – he is – in truth – rather too Devonshire to be quite clear-sighted on some subjects. An excellent Man truly, and of no mean genius – but apt to mingle his politics and religion with matters in which they have no concern.’
