Fox held Ariosto very high, thinking him equal in some respects to Virgil, and even his greatest of favourites, Homer." Mr. Fox, in another place, 1 mentions Homer and Ariosto for " their wonderful facility and the apparent absence of all study in their expression, which," he says, "is almost peculiar to them." How that can be apparent which is absent I leave to the second-sighted, but I must remark that in 1 In a letter to Trotter quoted on p. 143 of the Memoir*, Mr. Fox said : "Homer and Ario...sto have always been my favourites : there is something so delightful in their wonderful facility, and the apparent absence of all study in their expression, which is almost peculiar to them." HOMER AND SHAKESPEARE 149 poetry there are two kinds of facility, and opposite in their nature ; one arises from vigour, the other from negligence. In Homer and Shakespeare we shall invariably find the best parts remarkable for a facility of expression. As the purest and noblest of the metals is also the most plastic, in like manner whatever is in poetry the noblest and the purest takes a "form and pressure" the most easily and perfectly.
