It appears that we have not made a judicious investment. Works and days were offered us, and we took works.” “It is the art of mankind to polish the world, and every one who works is scrubbing in some part.” “His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.” |
