To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


The result was, in the case of Collins, a criticism rather in- adequate than unjust, and not seldom acute in its indication of faults, if somewhat blind to merits ; in that of Gray, one which cannot be quite so favourably spoken of, though the censure which has been heaped upon it notably by Lord Macaulay and Mr Arnold seems to me very far to surpass its own in- justice. Johnson's general summing up that Gray's " mind had a large grasp; his curiosity 1 was unlimited, and his judgment cultivated
... ; he was likely to love much where he loved at all, but fastidious and hard to please " is acute, just, and far from ungenerous. That on the Elegy " The four stanzas beginning, ' Yet even these bones, ' are to me original ; I have never seen the notions in any other place.
