Opis

Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Orators, Vol. 12: Edmund Burke, May, 1903 There was another boy destined for fame at Trinity College while Burke was there, but they did not get acquainted then. Some years later they met in Lon don, though, and talked it over. In countenance these two young men had a certain marked resemblance. Reynolds painted pictures of both Burke and Goldsmith, and when I looked at these portraits this morning, side by side, I said, Sir Joshua had n't quite got the Burke out of his brush before he painted the Goldsmith. Burke is Goldsmith grown big. Each had a weak chin, which was redeemed by the fine, full forehead and brilliant eye. In face and features, taken as a whole, Burke had a countenance of surpassing beauty. Note the full sen suons lips, the clear, steady, lustrous beaming eye, the splendid head! There is nothing small, selfish, mean or triżing about the man - he is open, frank, sympathetic, gentle, generous and wise.
