Detached Thoughts
occurs the following passage:
"I have been a reviewer. In the Monthly Review I wrote some articles which were inserted. This was in the latter part of 1811. In 1807, in a Magazine called Monthly Literary Recreations, I reviewed Wordsworth's trash of that time.
Excepting these, I cannot accuse myself of anonymous Criticism (that I recollect), though I have been offered more than one review in our principal Journals."
In the Bodleian Library is a copy of the
Monthly Review
, in which Griffiths has entered the initials of the authors of each article. Two articles from the
Review
, attributed to Byron on this authority, are given in
[a]Appendix I]
.
