Excerpt from The Life of William Cowper, Esq.: Compiled From His Correspondence and Other Authentic Sources of Information

In alluding to these suppressed letters, the late highly-esteemed Rev. Legh Richmond once em phatically remarked Cowper's character will never be clearly and satisfactorily understood without them, and they should be permitted to exist for the demonstration of the case. I know the importance of it from numerous conversations I have had both in Scotland and in England, on this most interesting subject. Persons of truly religious principles, as well as those of little or no religion at all, have greatly erred in their estimate of this great and good man.
