— II. 143.
Yesterday I went out 'at about twelve, and visited the British Museum; an exceedingly tiresome affair.
It quite crushes a person to see so much at once, and I wandered from hall to hall with a weary and heavy heart, wishing (Heaven forgive me I) that the Elgin Marbles and the frieze of the Parthenon were all burnt into lime, and that the granite Egyptian statues were hewn and squared into building-stones, and that the mummies had all turned to dust two thousand years A LONDON SUBURB ...385 After traversing the park, we come into the neighborhood of Greenwich Hospital, and will pass through one of its spacious gateways for the sake of glancing at an es- tablishment which does more honor to the heart of England than anything else that I am acquainted with, of a public nature.
It is very sddom that we can be sensible of anything like kindliness in the acts or relations of such an artificial thing as a National Grovemment Our own govern- menti I should conceive, is too much an abstraction ever to feel any sympathy for its maimed sailors and soldiers, though it will doubtless do them a severe kind of justice, as chilling as the touch of steel But it seemed to me that the Greenwich pensioners are the petted children of the nation, and that the government is their dry-nurse, and that the old men themselves have a child-like consciousness of their ago ; and, in fine, that all the material relics of so many •occessive ages had disappeared with the generations that produced them.
