The piece itself is admitted to be a master-piece in the kind. Tacitus was son-in-law to Agricola; and while filial piety breathes through his work, he never departs from the integrity of his own character. He has left a historical monument highly interesting to every Briton, who wishes to know the manners of his ancestors, and the spirit of liber- ty that from the earliest time distinguished the natives of Britain.

He de- feated them in a decisive action, which they fought under Galgacus; and having fixed a chain of garrisons between the friths of Clyde and Forth, he cut off the ruder and more barren parts of the island, and se- cured the Roman province from the incm-sions of the barbarous inhab- 344 THE LIFE OF AGRICOIiA.
