Note 96 — Chapter I · THE ROMANTIC
Reading edition
The phrases are Van Doren’s and Walker’s respectively. Cf. Garnett:
“It cannot be said that the satire of Gryll Grange is very Archilochian. The author has lost the power of raising a laugh at the objects of his dislike, and merely assails them with a genial pugnacity, so open, honest, and hearty as inevitably to conciliate a certain measure of sympathy.” Introduction.
