Gray's grand tour
is

the Alps; he draws less frequently than Addison from Latin poets,
but still frequently enough ; and records his impressions of archi-
tecture, and especially of painting ; and we note among other
evidences of his independence of judgment that he finds Andrea
del Sarto anything but 'the faultless painter.

If the force of justice and sad duty
Urging me on,
pursuing
victory,
Prescribes for you so harsh a law
It renders you defenceless, all the more
Be mindful in that act of blindness
That your honour is at stake, no less
Than your life, and your living glory
If you die, will be one more past story.

"He is so deeply concerned in the affairs of this world," answered
Martin, "that he may very well be in me, as well as in
everybody
else;
but I own to you that when I cast an eye on this globe, or rather on

some malignant being.
