“The
object
which
Mr.
Knight
proposed
to
himself
in
the
first
series
of
the
present
work
was
to
supply
brief
memoirs
or
characteristic
traits
of
many
distinguished
persons,
in
connexion
with
the
records
of
their
own
thoughts
and
feelings,
as
preserved
in
autobiographies,
in
diaries,
and
in
familiar
letters
:
and
this
is
well
carried
out
in
the
volume
before
us,
which
differs,
however,
in
one
respect
from
its
predecessor
;
for
while
it
was
no
part
of
Mr.
Knight’s
original
plan
to
include
unpublished
letters,
yet,
having
permission
to
for
the
first
time
some
interesting
letters
of
Robert
Southey
and
of
George
Canning,
he
has
very
wisely
availed
himself
of
such
permission,
and
thereby
added
fresh
interest
to
a
work
already
sufficiently
attractive
.”
