Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Best of the World´s Classics, Restricted to Prose, Vol. 4 of 10 Born In Ireland in 1672; died in Wales in 1729; companion of Addison at Oxford; served in the army in 1694, becoming a captain; elected to Parliament, but expelled for using seditious language; knighted under George; quarreled with Addison in 1719; founded the Tatler, and next to Addison, was the chief writer for the Spectator. I Of Companions and Flatterers An old acquaintance who met me this morning seemed overjoyed to see me, and told me I looked as well as he had known me do these forty years; but, continued he, not quite the man you were when we visited together at Lady Brightly´s. Oh! Isaac, those days are over. Do you think there are any such line creatures now living as we then conversed with? He went on with a thousand incoherent circumstances, which, in his imagination, must needs please me; but they had the quite contrary effect. The flattery with which he began, in telling me how well I wore, was not disagreeable; but his indiscreet mention of a set of acquaintance we had outlived, recalled ten thousand things to my memory, which made me reflect upon my present condition with regret.
