Excerpt from The Works of Samuel Johnson, Vol. 7 of 12 Scarcely any name can be imagined from which lefs envy of competition is to be dreaded. The Idler has no rivals or 'enemies. The man of bufinefs for gets him; the man of enterprize defpifes him; and though fuch as tread the fame track of life fall com mouly into jealoufy and difcord, Idlers are always found to, afl'ociate in peace; and he who is molt famed for doing nothing, is glad to meet another as idle as himfelf.

Excerpt from The Works of Samuel Johnson, Vol. 7 of 12 The last periodical labour of our literary Hercules, was the Idler. It was written originally for a weekly newspaper, entitled the 'Universal Chronicle, or Weekly Gazette,' in which Dr. Johnson was admitted into copartnership by Mr. John Newbery, the proprietor, as a consideration for these essays. It would appear, also, from a singular advertisement from the hand of Johnson, which we shall insert in its place, that he received, besides this interest in the paper, a compensation of a pecuniary nature. Mr. Newbery distinguished himself by the publication of many entertaining volumes adapted to the capacities of children, and his juvenile library has been a great means of facilitating early instruction. Dr. Johnson is said to have written for him several prefaces and introductions, particularly the historical advertisement prefixed to his amusing Collection of Voyages, entitled the 'World Displayed.' Mr. Newbery was, also, an occasional contributor of original matter himself. He died in the year 1776. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Works of Samuel Johnson, LL. D, Vol. 9 of 12 This obligation to amorous ditties owes, I believe, its original to the fame of Petrarch, who, in an age rude and uncultivated, by his tuneful homage to his Laura, refined the manners of the lettered world, and filled Europe with love and poetry. But the bafis of all excellence is truth he that profedes love ought to feel its power. Petrarch was a real lover, and Laura doubtlefs deferved his tendernefs. Of Cow ley, we are told by Barnes who had means enough of information, that, whatever he may talk of his own in ammabxlity, and the variety of characters by which his heart was divided, he in reality was in love but once, and then never had refolution to tell his pa ion.

Excerpt from The Works of Samuel Johnson, LL. D, Vol. 3 of 12: With an Essay on His Life and Genius This licentiousness of the poets, to which in some sort Socrates fell a sacrifice, at last was restrained by a law. For the government, which was before shared by all the inhabitants, was now confined to a settled number of citizens. It was ordered that no man's name should be mentioned on the stage; but poetical malignity was not long in finding the secret of defeating the purpose of the law, and of, making themselves ample compensation for the restraint laid upon authors, by the necessity of inventing false names. They set themselves to work upon known and real characters, so that they had now the advantage of giving a more exquisite gratification to the vanity of poets, and the malice of spectators. One had the refined pleasure of set ting others to guess, and the other that of guessing right by naming the masks. When pictures are so like, that the name is not wanted, nobody inscribes it. The consequence of the law, therefore, was nothing more than to make that done with deli cacy, which was done grossly before; and the art, which was expected would be confined within the limits of duty, was only partly transgressed with more ingenuity. Of this Arisfop/zanes, who was comprehended in this law, gives us good examples in some of his poems. Such was that which was afterwards called the middle comedy.
