It may be set down to the back- wardness in learning which the arrest of the Renascence caused in 10 TRANSLATION AND TRANSLATOKS England, that out of that hotbed of poetical talent under Elizabeth and James there proceeded no i^^reat naturalization of the Attic tragedians in our language.^ Milton could unquestionably have done it. And Greek Lyric ? When was that due ? Was the outburst of Romanticism the ideal moment when it should have been translated ? Perhaps had Fate spared us more Sappho an...d less Pindar, Shelley miglit have had the mind, as he had the hand, to do it ; and Byron might have helloed with Alcaeus. Or was it those Caroline gallants who let the moment pass ? Deal only Avith forms in the abstract and it is easy to rig up correspondences ; but as soon as ever you begin to consider real works and real writers, instead of abstractions, the personal equation is seen to be of overwhelming importance. To the producing of the original classic itself, as Brunetiere so well remarks, there go a peculiar happy alliance of conditions which are rarely united, and the personal begetting talent of the poet must supervene.
