Gray, My testimony gives no value to it ; it is the testimony which receives its stamp from truth. Walpole, But it is the testimony of an in- quiring, profound, and honest mind, of the greatest talent, and the greatest intelligence. Gray, I am but a theorist ; but on such sub- jects I think that theorists may, w...hen they become history, form a sure opinion. Walpole, In speculation your judgment THOMAS GRAY. 107 never errs.
