Quotes by Oliver Soden (?)

“Smart seems first to have been incarcerated, likely in a private asylum, in 1756, as Jeoffry scurried around the Covent Garden streets. On 6 May 1757 he was admitted to St Luke’s Hospital for Lunatics on Old Street, his name optimistically entered in the ledgers with the description “curable patient”.”
― Oliver Soden, Jeoffry: The Poet's Cat
