The few who have heard Mr. Heath's music place him with Elgar, Max Reger, and delius.
"The Way of Ambition"
Robert Hichens
The imitation of the Ode to delius, applied to Mr. Erskine, was written since the lamented death of those Gentlemen, which happened in the meridian of their days.
"Original sonnets on various subjects; and odes paraphrased from Horace"
Anna Seward
The equal mind,-as mortal delius was bidden to remember, and as Mr. Furnival might also have remembered had time been allowed him to cultivate the classics,-the equal mind should be as sedulously maintained when things run well, as well as when they run hardly; and perhaps the maintenance of such equal mind is more difficult in the former than in the latter stage of life.
"Orley Farm"
Anthony Trollope
