Opis

Excerpt from The Works of Samuel Johnson, LL. D, Vol. 6 of 12: A New Edition, With an Essay on His Life and Genius I know that among men of learning and afperity, the retainers to the female world are not much re garded; yet I cannot but hope that if you knew at how dear a rate our honours are purchafed, you would look with fome gratulation on our fuccefs, and with fome pity on our mifcarriages. Think on the mifery of him who is condemned to cultivate barrennefs and ranfack vacuity; who is obliged to continue his talk when his meaning is fpent, to raife merriment without images, to harafs his imagination in queft of thoughts which he cannot ftart, and his memory in purfuit of narratives which he cannot overtake; obferve the effort with which he {trains to conceal defpondency by a fmile, and the diftrefs in which he fits while the eyes of the company are fixed upon him as their laft refuge from filence and dejeétion.
