• Digitized by Google XXIII ON A HUNDRED YEARS HENCE Here is an example of the Informal Essay, which is defined by Dr. Johnson as a ' loose sally of the mind.' The title is a mere label ; a peg on which to hang as many detached thoughts — grave or gay — as you please. What will happen a hundred years hence ? We cannot tell ; but we know, at least, that all those things which please or vex us now, will neither gladden nor trouble us any more. * It will be all the same a hundred years hence.* As ...we saw in the last section, 'certain imperfec- tions' will in all probability always be considered as * permanent features of our common humanity ' ; and we may add that, on the other hand, certain pleasures will continue to be regarded in the same light As you are to limit your essay to the discussion of a single aspect of any given subject ; you must choose one particular kind of * imperfection,* or one particular kind of pleasure, whose nature you are to explain and to illustrate, in the light of the reflection that it will be all the same a hundred years hence.
