Charles Kirkpatrick Sharpe
Walter Scott to Charles Kirkpatrick Sharpe, 1808; Sharpe, Letters (1888) 1:356-57.
William Gifford is "casting many a northward look," and I would bring as many blue bonnets to his assistance as I can. I have already found him three or four very clever articles. Mend your pen, therefore; put gall in your ink; we want a light lively satire on any subject you like.
