Rese�a del editor

Excerpt from A Course of Lectures on Oratory and Criticism

To act an useful and honourable part in the community to which we belong, is an object of laudable ambition to every man, in proportion to the rank which he holds in it; and your Lordship cannot but be fully apprized, that the only foundations for a respectable figure in life, are good principles and good dispositions joined to a cultivated understanding. Eminence in these respects is what, in strictest right, may be expected of those whom their fellow-citizens, naturally their equals, are, by the constitution of their country, made to look up to, as their superiors. It is a debt due for that distinction. For it is universally true, that the obligation to do good is of the very fame extent with the power and opportunity of doing it.

This, my young Lord, is an age in which every thing begins to be estimated by its real use and value.
