VVaketield, in his edition of Gray, is very liable to this censure.
This kind of literary amusement is not despicable ; there are few men of letters who have not been in the habit of marking parallel passages, or tracing imitation, in the thousand shapes it assumes; it forms, it cultivates, it de- lights taste to observe by what dexterity and variation ge- nius conceals, or modifies, an original thought or image, and to view the same sentiment, or expression, borrowed with art, or heightened by
... embellishment. The ingenious writer of ' A Criticism on Grey's Elegy, in continuation of Dr Johnson's,' has given some observations on this subject, which will please. ' It is often entertaining to trace im- itation. To detect the adopted image ; the copied design ; the transferred sentiment; the appropriated phrase; arid even the acquired manner and frame, under all the dis- guises that imitation, combination, and accommodation may have thrown around them, must require both parts and diligence ; but it will bring with it no ordinary gratification.
