PREFACE. VU position, partly by work previously undertaken, partly by pro- fessional duties. But it has probably not been injured by the necessity of reading, for these duties, some four or five times over again, the Poetics and the Rhetoric, the Institutes and the Hepl "Tyfrov^;, the De Vulgari Moquio and the Discoveries, the Essay of Dramatic Poesy and the Preface to Lyrical Ballads. I do not know whether some apology may be expected from a man whom readers, if they know him at all, are likel...y to know only as a student of modern literature, for the presumption of making his own translations from Greek and Latin. But when one has learnt these languages for twelve or fifteen years, taught them for eight more, and read them for nearly another five-and-twenty, it seems rather pusillani- mous to take cover behind " cribs. " I have aimed throughout rather at closeness than at elegance. An apology of another kind may be offered for the biographical and lexicographical details which, at the cost of some trouble, have been incor- porated in the Index.
