Hence, as may be seen in Johnson's biography, tlieir attack on Puritanism and Milton as a Puritan had to be diverted from stale jokes to equally stale charges of perversive politics and hypocritical mor- als, great stress being laid on Milton's unseemly violence of argument. I suppose Milton's poetry to be comparatively out of favor now, though the awe that attends his name makes men shy MILTON TERCENTENAKY. 9 of criticism ; but as it is at once thoroughly musical and thoroughly intelligible, i...t naturally does not appeal to an age which craves, for what it calls poetry, verse without melody and sentences without sense, and warmly praises " Lycidas," that one of all Milton's poems that really needs an interpreter. In the same way Puritan principles are the constant subject of sneers as at once disagreeable and impracticable, in an age that thinks the only object of life is to do what you want to, — if you know what that is. I believe myself that the grandeur and beauty of Milton's poems are inseparably bound up with his Paritanism.
