A 4ness, interest and passion have their genuine effect; but a friendly letter is a calm and deliberate performance, in the cool of leisure, in the stillness of solitude; and truly no man sits down to depreciate by design his own character. Shrewd remarks these, beyond a doubt; but the words here printed in italics apply to men Of coarser mould than robert southey.
