`The Oxford English Texts edition of the poems answers a long-felt
need.'
Times Literary Supplement
`These volumes complete the new three-volume Clarendon edition of
Cowper's poems, edited by Professor Baird and Dr Ryskamp. They
establish what surely will be the standard edition for many years
... the editing is excellent ... The Notes (which occupy one-third
of the volume) are very well done.'
David Groves, Notes and Queries, Vol. 44, No. 3, September 1997
`Volume III maintains both the high standard of scholarship set by
the earlier volumes, and Clarendon's reputation for high-quality
editions, with real bottom-of-the-page footnotes: now an almost
old-world grace. I came across no errors, and rarely wished for an
explanatory note that was not suppled ... If there is even a
flicker of interest in Cowper out there, this volume should fan and
nourish it.'
Richard Bevis, University of British Columbia, ?? journal
