His fun was the spontaneous overflow of superabundant animal spirits.' (Edward Irving Carlyle, in DNB) -- In a letter of September 11th, 1842 he made plain his view of the Tractarian or Oxford movement: `I have not yet discovered of what I am to die, but I rather believe I shall be burnt alive by the Puseyites. Nothing so remarkable in England as the progress of these foolish people. I have no conception what they mean, if it be not to revive every absurd ceremony, and every antiquated folly, which the common sense of mankind has set to sleep.' Worn, first title-page detached.
