Excerpt from The British Essayists, Vol. 40 of 40: With Prefaces, Biographical, Historical, and Critical; Knox's Winter Evenings, Vol. III

Junius, indeed, when he writes on common sub jects, writes like common men. He was one of those writers, whose genius is excited by the dignity of his subject, and rises' adequately to the occasion. His preface is but of moderate excellence, his Philo Junius, confessedly written by himself, would not have distinguished him from the herd, and his notes are worthy of little' distinction.
