Passages where the evidence goes beyond allusion to indicate that Fuller had this work in hand — an explicit statement of reading, sustained excerpting or translation, or a specific reading episode recorded by those who knew her.
“Take, as a specimen, the opening description in Marmion. THE CASTLE. Day set on Norham's castled steep.”
Papers on Literature and Art
Introduced as 'a specimen' with a 47-line excerpt range, indicating a sustained multi-stanza quotation from Marmion.
“Marmion," "The Lay of the Last Minstrel," &c, cannot, indeed, be companions of those Sabbath hours of which the weariest, dreariest life need not be destitute, for their bearing is not upon the true life of man, his immorial life.”
