Note 6 — I. TO THE IMMORTAL MEMORY OF DR. SAMUEL JOHNSON

Anna Seward (1747-1809). Her works were published after her death:—The Poetical Works of Anna Seward. With Extracts from her Literary Correspondence. Edited by Walter Scott, Esq. In three volumes—John Ballantyne & Co., 1810. Letters of Anna Seward written between the Years 1784 and 1807. In six volumes. Archibald Constable & Co., 1811. “Longwinded and florid” one biographer calls her letters, but by the aid of what Scott calls ‘the laudable practice of skipping’ they are quite entertaining.
