ROGERS, THE PoET. We make the following
extract from book of biographical sketches
by Miss Harriet Martinesu:
Rogers survived all his early friends ,
"We have seen Moore die in deereplt ola
age; yet did Moore, In his boyhoo1 l"nen ne
was fourteen delight in Rogers treasures OIL
Memory the poem being then SO common as
to have found its way into SCHOOLS In class
books and collections.
\ s'He heard the first remarks on
the Vicar of Wakefield, and read, damp from
the press, all the fiction that has appeared since
from the Burneys, the Edgeworths, the SCOTS,
the Dickenses, and the Thaekerays. As for
the poetry. he was aghast at the rapidity with
which the SCOTS, Byrons and Moores poured
out their works aud even Campbell was too
quick for him-he, with all his leisure, and
Icing always at it, producing TO the amount OF
two octave volumes in his whole lie.
His hold on lite was very strong. lie VINO
was an authority on the incidents OF the Hast
ings trial, and who was in Fox's room when he
was dying-he who saw George Ill. young
man, and was growing into manhood when
johnson went to the Hebrides, survived for
several years being run over by cab OF the
construction OF the middle of the nineteenth
century. His poetry could scarcely be sand to
live SO long as himself, as it was rather the IL
Illustrations with which it was graced than the
verse itself that kept his volumes on sale and
within view.
