Summary
Proposing an article, "On A Recent Criticism of Mr. Swinburne's", which would respond to a piece by Swinburne about Tennyson: "There would not be a word of hostility against any one but I should rather venture quietly to rebuke those extravagances of opinion, expression & style, which I find are displeasing to most people."
