II. 10* 114 LIFE AND RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE but this would hardly be consistent with the plan of the present work. It is worthy of notice, however, and it shows with how much devotedness he engaged in them, that he wrote for the special instruction and benefit of this prince his well-known Fables, and also his Dialogues; works which have since contributed to the instruction and happiness of many persons. Each of the Fables, and also each of the Dialogues, was written on particular occasions and w...ith par- ticular objects ; having been composed for the most part, when the teacher found it necessary to remind his pupil of some faults which he had committed, and to inculcate upon him the duty and the methods of amendment. There is reason to suppose, that his celebrated work, enti- tled the Adventures of Telemachus, which was published many years afterwards, was also written at this time, and with the same general object. In this remarkable work, which is so generally read, we have a striking combination of sound judgment with great resources of imagination ; so that it is difficult to say, which is most to be admired, the wisdom and benevolence of its political and moral maxims, or the richness and beauty of its imagery.
