TEIBUTE TO CHARLES SPRAGUE. 13 Charles Sprague and Charles Lamb had other similarities than those connected with outward circumstance. They had both the same strong love for quaint old volumes, and were never weary of searching for the treasures they contained. " And you, my midnight darlings, my folios," Lamb would exclaim, " must I part with the intense delight of having you (huge armfuls) in my embrace ? Must knowledge come to me, if it come at all, by some awkward experiment of intui- tion,
... and no longer by this familiar process of reading ? " (" Elia.") To both, the volumes they loved were an unfailing solace and delight.
Mr. Sprague's house was overflowing with books, and no one knew better than he did all that was good within them. "You have come to see a happy old man," he exclaimed to me one day as I entered his room, — " a very happy old man, surrounded by his friends." And with a lurninous smile he smote with bis hand the books upon his table.
"These are precious friends," he said, "and I love them more and more." Many will be reminded of his own lines to his cigar ; — " When in the lonely evening hour, Attended but by thee, O'er history's varied page I pore, Man's fate in thine I see.
