Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Account of the Character of the Late Right Honourable Henry Bilson Legge He was so well known, that it seems unnecessary to mention, that he was Nobly born. The formal Introduction of a Pedigree is superfluous, in the case of a Character Eminently Meritorious in itself; and his noble Family will pardon the Liberty of saying, that, however great the Honor might be, which he derived from his Birth, it became inconsiderable, when compared with his Personal Merits and Excellencies. He was not educated at any of those Schools, which produce most of the Ornaments and Supporters of their Country; but he was a remarkable instance, how indifferent it is, in what Nursery a Man of strong Parts, natural Wit, and superior Judgment has been raised. Notwithstanding he entered upon Business very early, and applied himself to it with the closest Attention, very few of his Rank were so well acquainted with the most eminent Greek and Roman Classics; and he was singularly happy in the Application of Passages, which he seemed to have had hardly time to consider.
