[BNP/E3, 14E – 90]
The great fault of Shelley is abundantly shown to us in his poetry – carelessness. His life displays it not less than does his poetry. A man of supreme kindliness in the whole, he yet did things of a truth cruel and incredible from the mere want of close casuistic consideration of circumstances. He was too hearty in his judgments and never perceived how necessary is it to subject the plans, the intentions and the poetry of enthusiasm to a close and impartial discrimination.[1]
[BNP/E3, 14E - 90]
O grande defeito de Shelley é-nos abundantemente mostrado na sua poesia - o descuido. Sua vida mostra-o não menos do que a sua poesia. Um homem de suprema bondade em geral, ele fez, porém, coisas de uma verdade cruel e incrível pela mera falta de uma casuística consideração próxima das circunstâncias. Ele era muito entusiasta nos seus julgamentos e nunca percebeu como é necessário submeter os planos, as intenções e a poesia do entusiasmo a uma discriminação estreita e imparcial.
