George Ticknor, Life, letters and journals of George Ticknor (ed. George Hillard), Chapter 8: (search)
engagement to go to Lord Holland's, who is now passing a few days at his luxurious establishment in South Street. I found there Lord Albemarle, Pozzo di Borgo, Lord Melbourne, the Sardinian Minister, Young Ellice and his beautiful. highbred wife, Allen, and some others. Pozzo di Borgo was brilliant, and Lady Holland disagreeable. Lord Holland talked about Prescott's Ferdinand and Isabella, as did John Allen, and gave it high praise; Allen pronouncing the chapters on the Constitutions of Castile and Arragon—particularly the last—to be better than the corresponding discussions in Hallam's Middle Ages. This I regard as decisive. No man alive is better authority on such a point than Allen, Southey, too, this morning, was equally decided, though he was not so strong, and did not go so much into detail. Lord Albemarle, Lord Holland, and Allen talked about Dr. Channing; and Lord Holland said he regarded him as the best writer of English alive. So we are getting on in the world. Suc
