Poems by Edgar Allan Poe review of Sarah's work. That review appeared in the September 1848 issue of the "Southern Literary Messenger". Marie Louise Shew (Virginia's one-time volunteer nurse, of sorts) later said that Poe called Lewis a "fat, gaudily-dressed woman." Poe's biographer, Arthur Hobson Quinn, called "An Enigma" "one of Poe's feeblest poems".
