John Owen and JN Darby

I stumbled across the following extract from the extraordinary William Reid:

JN Darby "bids fair to become as voluminous an author as John Owen of Puritan celebrity ... Like Owen, you will find him involved, discursive, and rather hard to read; in Mr D.'s case with far more reason, as he is incomparably more profound, as well as more learned." [Literature and mission of the so-called Plymouth Brethren (London, 1875), p. 8]

Quite a commendation!
