In 1854, while working for the Westminster Review, she published another translation, this time of Feuerbach's "Essence of Christianity." in 1857 she published the first of a series of sketches which became known as "Scenes of Clerical Life." In 1879 she produced a collection of essays called "The Impressions of Theophrastus Such" written from the viewpoint of a clergyman's son, and reflecting on contemporary life and events.
