He had not better parts than his father, but much stronger animal spirits. Everything in his com- position was little; and he had all the weaknesses of a little mind ; without any of the virtues, or even the vices, of a great one. He loved to act the King, but mistook the part; and the Royal dignity dirunk into the Electoral pride. He was educated upon that scale, and never enlarged its dimensions with his dominions. As Elector of Hanover he thought himself great, as King of Great Britain only ...rich. Avarice, the meanest of all passions, was his ruling one ; and I never knew him to deviate into any generous action. His first natural movements were always on the side of justice and truth ; but they were often warped by Ministerial influence, or the secret twitches of avarice. He was generally reckoned ill-natured, which indeed he was not. He had rather an unfeeling than a bad heart ; but I never observed any settled malevolence in him, though his sudden passions, which were frequent, made him say things which, in cooler moments, he would not have executed.
