'J'en passe, et des meilleurs.' But who can enumerate all or
half our obligations to the illimitable and inexhaustible
genius of the great man whose life and whose labour lasted

inadequacy of my poor praise and too imperfect gratitude to
the majestic subject of their attempted expression; but
'such as I had have I given him.'
