Evidence:
Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 30 August 1842: 'As to Charlotte Elizabeth -- yes, I have read that little book you speak of, & several of her little books besides. Her bitterness & narrowness towards the R Catholics [...] I admit & lament to the roots of my heart. She is a very devoted woman, & lives to God nearly as if she lived with Him -- and I believe that in exciting religious feeling her books have done much good & especially among the young.'
