How many of us If we were really

We have for our own part a greater

at one time or another TO have read all

it four times and could never get five

attempted ii at least six times and
taken the count in the first round
every time.

been going against the Cary transla

We can't get interested in It. Yet up
to the present moment we have always
pretended that we had read all of ii

tie of it, and we know all the usunl
things that are said about 1t, and w
even wrote some stuff about 1t ona
time, saying all the things that are
usually said about it. for which we got
$50, but we don't really like it. 1t pu; j.,
us to sleep, 1t seems long drawn out
and clumsy to us.
"Boswell's Life OF Johnson" We
never read any of 1t. But we have pre-
tended to and have pretended at times
to quote incidents from 1t and have got
