British authors may be classed In
various ways. Some are philosophers,
like n secure fastening and vowel
and a breakfast eatable. Some. again
are poets, like painful results Of a de-
vouring element and expressive sounds
and true value. There are essayists
like hardened metal and a vowel
and young and tender meat, and
others. like kind Of swallow, who
are Of less amiable character. These
stand side by side with writer's of
novels, like some one north Of the
Tweed and an upright and crosspiece
or Of stories, plays and verses, like q
