D, Vol. 1 of 2: To Which Are Added, Some Poems Never Before Printed May thefelettersin fome meafnre pay my debts of gratitude! They will not furely be the fiqfl, the only thing written by Johnfon, with which our nation has not been pleafed. The good tafte by which our countrymen are difiinguiihed, will lead them to prefer the native thoughts and unfiudied phrafes feat tered over thefe pages, to the more laboured elegance of his other works - as bees have been obferved to reject fofes, and fix upon the Wild fragrance of a neighbouring heath. I have however been attentive to avoid pain ing many individuals, even for the gratifica tion of that Public to which I am much more obliged - for duty bids me defend an enemy from cenfure, while i nclination eagerly brings forward the praifes of every friend.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Samuel Johnson, LL. D, Vol. 1 of 2: Oct. 30, 1731-Dec. 21, 1776 Club, a set of men who, he maintained, were sufficient worthily to fill all the chairs of a University I. So far as we know he did not write a single letter to Edmund Burke he wrote more than 300 to the wife of a Southwark brewer. With such ardour did he keep up the correspondence that in nine weeks of the summer of 177 5 he wrote to her thirty times. Let us for once be thank ful for the old abuse of the franking system, by which these letters were carried free of postage. Had he had to pay the usual charge of fourpence on each he would, I fear have remembered, as he once bade Mrs. Thrale remember, that three groats make a shilling and he would have written far less frequently.

Download or read book Letters of Samuel Johnson LL D Vol 1 of 2 written by George Birkbeck Hill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Samuel Johnson, LL. D , Vol. 1 of 2: Oct; 30, 1731 Dec; 21, 1776 How extensive was Johnson's correspondence, and how much of it has been preserved, is not perhaps generally known. He wrote unwillingly. 'I know not how it happens,' he told Dr. Taylor in the year 1756, 'but I fancy that I write letters with more difficulty than some other people who write nothing but letters; at least I find myself very unwilling to take up a pen only to tell my friends that I am well; and indeed I never did exchange letters regularly but with dear Miss Boothby.' Seven years later he wrote to Boswell: 'I love to see my friends, to hear from them, to talk to them, and to talk of them; but it is not without a considerable effort of resolution that I prevail upon myself to write.' In this he was like Goldsmith who, apologising for his neglect in correspondence, said, 'No turnspit dog gets up into his wheel with more reluctance than I sit down to write.' I have seen in an Auction Catalogue an extract from a letter by Grainger, the author of the Sugar Cane, in which he says: 'When I taxed little Goldsmith for not writing as he promised inc, his answer was that he never wrote a letter in his life; and faith I believe him, unless to a bookseller for money.' Nevertheless, however indolent a man may be with his correspondence, if he lives to the age of seventy-five, and if his letters arc thought worth keeping, a great mass will be preserved. Happily, there was one person to whom Johnson wrote eagerly enough. His letters to Mrs. Thrale are more than 300 in number.
