“May I ask," said De Vere, "how you feel towards him on the subject." … Lord Mowbray … 'If he does I tell you fairly he will not do for me' … The graceful harmony produced by the exact correspondence of motion with sound … In respect to dancing … a learned bishop … next to the mental delight of reading the story in Euripides, was that of seeing it at the opera.”

Fuller, Margaret. "Reading Notebook 1825–1827." Houghton Library, Harvard University.

Attributed 'De Vere p 195.' at the end of the passage on p. 132.
