"^® It is Taylor's solicitude for rhythm and rime, some...times for both, that impels him to his " fatal habit of impoverishing by seeking to enrich. "^** At times he seeks relief in vacuous epithets and impotent adverbs : " Cf. Saturday Review, v. 19, p. 478, review of Sir Theodore Martin's Faust. Cf.
