After having passed some years under this dreary domestic dis- cipline, young St. John was sent to Eton. Here, as afterwards at Christ Church, Oxford, the brilliancy of his genius commanded the admiration both of his fellow-students and his academic rulers.
Irregular in everything, he never amassed such ample stores of sound learning as distinguished some of the scholars of his age.
With the Greek classics his acquaintance was never more than superficial ; but he was extensively and accurately ...conversant with the Latin writers, and he added to his classical accomplishments the unusual merit of a thorough knowledge of the best writers in his own and other modem languages. He devoted much time and thought to metaphysics — ^a study which he rightly thought absolutely essential to the man who seeks to make the minds of others acknowledge his own mind's dominion. He was well read in ancient and a consummate master of modem history. He had N 2 180 LORD BOLINGBBOKB.
