Bianca Milesi-Mojon translated Mrs. Barbauld's Hymns and some of Miss Edgeworth's Tales into Italian; and a sketch of her life was published by Emile Souvestre, in 1854.

We give a part of the letter from Miss Edgeworth, to which the above is an answer: We are very eager, very anxious, to see you again at our own home, retired and homely as it is. You flatterhaving become acquainted with us, as you took when you only knew the authorship part of Your affectionate friend, Maria Edgeworth.
