To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
... I was to-day at an auction of pictures with Pratt, and laid out two pounds five shillings for a picture of Titian, and if it were a Titian it would be worth twice as many pounds. If I am cheated, I'll part with it to Lord Masham : if it be a bargain, ril keep it to myself. That's my conscience. But I made Pratt buy several pictures for Lord Masham.
Pratt is a great virtuoso that way. I dined with Lord Treasurer, but made him go to Court at eight.
I always tease him to be gone. I thought to ...have made Parnell dine with him, but he was ill ; his head is out of order like mine, but more constant, poor boy ! I was at Lord Treasurer's levee with the Provost to ask a book for the college. I never go to his levee unless it be to present somebody." ^ The weaknesses disclosed in these passages, the fluttering vanity, the greedy desire for notice by 1 5th and 6th March 1713. 2 isth February 1713.
VOL. III. S Digitized by Google 274 INTELLECTUAL PROGRESS.
the great, with the affectation of holding it in scorn, might all be characteristics of an innocent and genial nature.
