Review of Conscious Lovers criticism by Sir Richard Steele
Critics find the Conscious Lovers design regular and moral, yet fault the fable’s conduct as indecisive and characters as dull and unvaried.

The piece ends with a blunt attack on the moralistic yet unfocused dramatic execution and the overlong cast.
