Two thousandpounds in a year! I gazed at him with wonder and admiration.
I have known very few prosperous men of letters; N--- represents for methe best and brightest side of literary success. Say what one will aftera lifetime of disillusion, the author who earns largely by honest andcapable work is among the few enviable mortals. Think of N---'sexistence. No other man could do what he is doing, and he does it withease. Two, or at most three, hours' work a day--and that by no meansevery day--su...ffices to him. Like all who write, he has his unfruitfultimes, his mental worries, his disappointments, but these bear noproportion to the hours of happy and effective labour. Every time I seehim he looks in better health, for of late years he has taken much moreexercise, and he is often travelling. He is happy in his wife andchildren; the thought of all the comforts and pleasures he is able togive them must be a constant joy to him; were he to die, his family issafe from want. He has friends and acquaintances as many as he desires;congenial folk gather at his table; he is welcome in pleasant houses nearand far; his praise is upon the lips of all whose praise is worth having.
