A little rustic memorial was raised over her, and often and often have I seen him, the tears 'chasing each other' down his cheeks, point to his daughter's monument, and 'wish to be with her, and at rest.' Such, at times, was the man before whose very look not merely gravity, but sadness has often vanished — who has given birth to more erjoyment, and uttered more wit, than perhaps any of his contem- poraries in any country — who had in him materials for social happiness such as we can not hope a...gain to see combined in any one; and whose death has cast, I fear, a permanent eclipse upon the festivities of his circle. Yet even these melancholy hours were not without their moral. They proved the nothingness of this world's gifts — the worse than inutility of this world's attain- ments.; they forced the mind into involuntary reflection; they showed a fellow-creature enriched with the finest natural endow- ments, having acquired the most extensive reputation, without a pecuniary want or a professional rival, yet weighed down with a constitutional depression that left the poorest wealthy and the humblest happy in the comparison.
