Excerpt from Life and Genius of Lord Byron

Applying that genius to an exposure of hypocrisy and cant the most complete and the most daring that had ever been undertaken, - and when, in addition to this, he had gone to excite by his presence, and aid with his fortune, the descendants of those who had first shown how noble a thing freedom is, and how admirable are the works of genius and fancy which it can create, the sorrow of every admirer of the majesty of man swells to its largest extent, and the public calls aloud for every notice, however hasty or however slight, of one having such talents, turning them to such an ac count, and being cut off from the world at a moment so very critical.
