Posterity has taken a more lenient view of his serious errors of conduct, while according to his genius a shining place among the immortals. There are ed. of the Poems by W.M. Rossetti , Dowden , etc. Lives by Medwin , J.A. Symonds , W.M. Rossetti, Prof. Dowden, T. Jefferson Hogg, and others. Poet, s. of Thomas S., owner of a small estate at Hales Owen, Shropshire.

He waited another minute. "And you're going to do it?" "I'm going to do it," said Mamie Cutter. "Well then that ought to be a haul. Call it THREE fivers!" he laughed. "At seven sharp." And at last he left her alone.
"But I don't leave him for long." Her hansom had waited. "She'll come." Lady Wantridge did come. She met in South Audley Street, on the fourteenth, at tea, the ladies whom Mamie had named to her, together with three or four others, and it was rather a master- stroke for Miss Cutter that if Mrs. Medwin was modestly present Scott Homer was as markedly not.
