"There is nothing in John Taylor which deserves preservation for its intrinsic merit alone; but in the collection of his pieces which I have perused there is a great deal to illustrate the manners of his age."-SOUTHEY: Uneducated Poets.

"The Spenser Society having now completed their fac-simile reprint of the Works of John Taylor, comprised in the folio of 1630, the Council are desirous to supplement it by a republication of his other pieces which have only appeared in a separate form. Many works have been ascribed to him without sufficient grounds, and the continuing reprint will only include those which either bear his name or contain very strong internal evidence of having him as their author. As these, however, are very numerous, and some of them excessively rare, I venture to hope that the possessors of copies will aid the undertaking in which the Council are engaged, and will allow the use of them for the purpose of transcription, in order to make the collection as complete as possible. Every care will be taken of any volumes which may be intrusted to me for that purpose. I shall also be obliged by any additions which your correspondents may point out to the list of John Taylor's works given by Mr. Hazlitt in his Hand-Book, which appears to be the most complete and correct one yet published, but which is, as must naturally be supposed, capable of enlargement."-JAS.

The Key is repub. in Bishop Watson's Collection of Tracts, who observes that it

"Taylor's edition is founded on that of Wolff, the whole of whose notes, together with those of Markland, are inserted in it. In the notes of the editor, which are written in very pure Latin, the student will find a valuable illustration of the Athenian law and the antiquities of Greece: he has displayed a great deal of sound judgment and critical sagacity in this laborious and difficult undertaking."-Moss's Classical Manual.

Reiske does not seem to have appreciated Taylor's very pure Latin."

"Dictio Taylori Latina haud placet: obscura, affectata, putida est. Sed paucos novi Anglos, qui Latine scribere didicissent. Latinæ linguæ neglectus illi genti communis est. Et tamen Taylor, si ad alios Anglos spectetur, adhuc bene scribit. Melius si scisset Latine, non vituperasset Wolfium."

See, also, Blackw. Mag., xxix. 776, (by De Quincey.) "Dr. Parr considered his Latin style to be sometimes incorrect, as he introduced Anglicisms, and sometimes a violation of the Latin idioms. He particularly (said the doctor) used to blunder about 'ut.' So did Toup and other illustrious scholars." -Lon. Gent. Mag., 1837, i. 463, (q. v.)

After Taylor's death his papers relating to the Orators were by his friend Dr. Askew transmitted to Reiske, then occupied with his edition of the Oratores Græci, Lips., 1770-73, 12 vols. 8vo, (q. v. for Taylor's notes:) "Reiske appears to have made a too indiscriminate use of the materials thus supplied. The reputation of his predecessor he treats with little tenderness or delicacy. It is, however, admitted by more impartial judges that Taylor possessed many eminent qualifications for the difficult task which he had undertaken."-DR. DAVID IRVING: Encyc. Brit., 8th ed., xxi., (1842,)

q. v.

"In a critical point of view, the edition of Taylor is not of any great worth, and its chief value consists in its notes in illustration of the history of the orations and the Attic law."-Knight's Eng. Cyc., Biog., v., 1857, 936.

The Key,

But see MENDHAM, REV. JOSEPH, No. 1. abridged, &c. by Thomas Howe, was pub. 1805, 12mo. Of Taylor's Paraphrases and Notes, &c. it has been remarked,

"It would be wrong to deny that it contains marks both of learning and genius, and that several things in it are worthy of attention. But its complete perversion of scriptural doctrine on the most important topics, and the latitude of its principles of interpretation, render it a very dangerous book. Dr. Doddridge said very justly of it, that Dr. Taylor had broke his key in Paul's epistles."-Orme's Bibl. Bib.

An eminent prelate declares Taylor's system in this Key to be

"nothing more than an artificial accommodation of Scripture phrases to notions utterly repugnant to Christian doctrine."ARCHBISHOP MAGEE: Discourses on the Atonement, 181-188, 191

"This is one of the most laborious and most useful works ever published for the advancement of Hebrew knowledge and the understanding of the Old Testament in its original language. It is, in fact, a Grammar, Lexicon, and Concordance, founded on the Concordance of Buxtorf, all whose errors Dr. Taylor has corrected.... The price of this Concordance varies from nine

to twelve guineas, according to its condition."-Horne's Bibl. Bib., 1839, 366.

In sale-catalogues of the last few years it is generally priced between two and three guineas, (1863.)

"This is by far the most complete and the most useful work of the kind, especially to the English scholar."-Orme's Bibl. Bib., 1824, 113.

by Dr. Johnson on the death of his wife: but we doubt not (we have read them all carefully) that Dr. Johnson is entitled to the credit of all of them:

"There is not a man in England who knows any thing of Dr. Johnson's peculiarities of style that will not instantly pronounce these sermons to be his."-Bishop Porteus to Dr. Beattie, 1788.

"There can be no doubt that the sermons were Johnson's."
