A Rhythmical Translation of Goethe's Tasso

“A Rhythmical Translation of Goethe's Tasso”
mentioned
“Generally it is dangerous to finish a real life by an invented catastrophe, as Schiller has done with regard to the Maid of Orleans; but such clouds of doubt rest on portions of Tasso's life, and what is known of it is so romantic, that more liberty may be taken.”
