Excerpt from The Wise Men of Greece: In a Series of Dramatic Dialogues My Dear Taylor. - I have requested the honour of dedicating this book to you, partly that I might signify, in a small way, the respect which I entertain for your character and efficiency as a literary man; partly because, if there is anything of a wise conception in the structure of these dialogues, and any degree of adequacy in their execution, I know no person in these islands at once more willing and more able than yourself to pronounce a judgment on their merits or demerits, which I shall think it my duty to respect.
