Essays by a distinguished playwright, poet and essayist of the times of the Civil War and the Restoration
In all our comparisons of taste, I do not know whether I have ever heard your opinion of a poet very dear to me,--the now-out-of-fashion Cowley. Favor me with your judgment of him, and tell me if his prose essays, in particular, as well as no inconsiderable part of his verse, be not delicious. I prefer the graceful rambling of his essays even to the courtly elegance and ease of Addison, abstracting from this the latter's exquisite humor. --Lamb to Coleridge, 10 January 1797
From Letters of Samuel Johnson:
To Edmund Burke, Esq.
June 21, 1770
Dear Sir:
I promised a long time ago to lend you Cowley’s Latin Works. If you have not yet seen them, be pleased to accept of this copy which I bought at Oxford, and which is of the best edition. You may easily repay this little present by informing me that dear Mrs. Burke is better. I am, Sir, Your most humble Servant,
Sam. Johnson
