We smile at her, but she never forfeits our respect. Scott said of her, "Old Mrs. Rayland is without a peer." Mrs. Smith's second gift to the novel was her charming descriptions of rural scenery. Nature had for a long time been banished from the arts.
Wordsworth in one of his prefaces wrote: "Excepting The Nocturnal Reverie of Lady Winchelsea, and a passage or two in the Windsor Forest of Pope, the poetry of the period inter- vening between the publication of Paradise Lost and The Seasons does
...not contain a single new image of external nature; and scarcely presents a familiar one, from which it can be inferred that the eye of the Poet had been steadily fixed upon his object, much less that his feelings had urged him to work upon it in the spirit of genuine imagination." Fiction was as barren of scenery as poetry.
None of the novelists were cognisant of the country scenes amid which their plots were laid, with the possible exception of Goldsmith.
The Vicar of Wakefield has a rural setting, and there are references to the trees, the blackbirds, and the hayfields; but description is not intro- duced for the sake of its own beauty as in the novels of Charlotte Smith.
