Rogers is a friend of Wordsworth; but thinks he has written too much, and without sufficient limae labor. He says it takes him ten times as long to write a sentence of prose as it does Wordsworth one of poetry; and, in illustration, he showed me a thought in Wordsworth's last work, Yarrow Revisited, and other Poems, 1835.—dedicated to Rogers,—on the saying of the monk who had sat before the beautiful pictures so long and seen so many changes, that he felt tempted to say, We are the shadows, and they the substance. They are in truth the Substance, we the Shadows,—from Wordsworth's Lines suggested by a portrait from the pencil of F. Stone.

His view of the policy of the Abolitionists is shown in a letter he wrote April 9, 1850, in reply to a friend who justified his own opposition to the Anti-slavery movement by urging their violent language:— I have read the Liberator more or less, since 1835.
