Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters From a Late Eminent Prelate to One of His Friends First American: Edition Rev. Sir, I Received the favour of your edition of Horace´s Art of Poetry: for which I beg leave to make my best acknowledgments. You have given very little advantage to the critics, but where you speak of me: and yet my self-love will not suffer me to wish it unsaid, when I consider how much real honour is done to every one whom such an author commends. I tell you, with all sincerity, I think the Notes one of the most masterly pieces of criticism that ever was written. I am sure (and I ought to be ashamed to say it) that I should have envied you for it, had I not found you so generous to the Commentator of Mr. Pope. As it is, I take a pride in it as my own; a greater than I can take in any of my own. I wish it was in my power to make a suitable acknowledgment for my obligations. The best thing I have to offer you is a very unprofitable friendship. Such as it is, you have a right to it.
