But' he produced one woik this year, fuUy sufficient to maintain the high reputation which he had acquired. This was " The Life op Richard Savage;"* a man, of whom it is difficult to speak impartially,, without wondering that he was for some time the intimate companionof JEM. 35.] DR JOHNSON. J47 Johnson; for his character* was marked by- profligacy, insolence, and ingratitude : yet, as he undoubtedly had a warm and vigorous, though unregulated mind, had seen life in all its varieties, and been... much in the company of the statesmen and wits of his time, he could communicate to Johnson an abundant supply of such materials as his philosophical curiosity most eagerly desired ; and as Savage's misfor- tunes and misconduct had reduced him to the lowest state of wretchedness as a writer for bread, his visits to St. John's Gate naturally brought* Johnson and him together.!
* As a specimen of his temper, I insert the following letter from him to a noble Lord, to whom he was under great obli- gations, but who on account of his bad conduct, was obliged to discard him* The original was in the hands of the late Francis Cockayne Cust, Esq.
