when this awful moral lesson had subsisted from 1 743 until the 19th of October, 1745, it pleased God to release him from this calamitous situation. He died upon that day without a single pang, so gently that his attendants were scarce aware of the moment of his dissolution." Swift was seventy-eight years of age at the time of his death, having outlived all his contemporaries of the Queen Anne cluster, of wits, with the excep- tion of Bolingbroke, Ambrose Philips, and Gibber. Congreve had died ...in 1729 ; Steele in the same year ; Defoe in 1731 ; Gay in 1732 ; Arbuthnot in 1735 ; Tickell in 1740 ; and Pope, who was Swift's junior by twenty-one years, in 1.744. Swift, therefore, is entitled in our literary histories to the place of patriarch as well as to that of chief among the Wits of Queen Anne's reign ; and he stands nearest to our own day of any of them whose writings we still read. As late as the year 1820 a person was alive who had seen Swift as he lay dead in the deanery before his burial, great crowds going to take their last look of him.
