" % The rich may as well ask to borrow of the poor, as the man of virtue or merit hope for addition to his character from any but such as himself. He that commends another engages so much of his own reputation as he gives to that person commended ; and he that has nothing laudable in himself is not of ability to be such a surety.

" And with the shadowy picture feeds his mind. " VIRGIL.

My principal entertainments of this nature are pictures, inso- much that when I have found the weather set in to be very bad, I have taken a whole day's journey to see a gallery that is furnished by the hands of great masters.
