Letters of Margaret Fuller ed. Hudspeth · Thursday evening, 5th June, 1845
'I have been looking over the Crescent and the Cross...' is an explicit first-person reading statement.
In Fuller’s words
“Now if you want the particulars from "The Crescent and the Cross" I must fill up my letter with them. I am sorry you did not look at it, both on this account and because it is too long to copy all and I shall have to select particulars according to my own judgment, which may fail as to what you most want.”
