It consists of treatises (by Vallancey, the editor, and others) on Irish coins, the literature, geography, history, and other antiquities of the country. See Bohn's Lowndes, 2749. It is not without value, but must not be relied on as a guide.

"It is a difficult and rather unpleasant task to follow a writer so rambling in his reasonings and so obscure in his style: his hypotheses are of a visionary nature."-GEORGE PETRIE.

Vallencey (vol. vi.) disagrees with Petrie, and agrees with O'Brien, in his view of the Round Towers of Ireland. "I had heard a good deal of the wild fancies of this book, but never read it before. At first it rather amused me; but after getting through a volume I was oppressed by weariness."-SIR J. MACKINTOSH: Life, i. ch. ix., (1808.)

"To expose the continual error of his theory will not cure his inveterate disease. It can only excite hopes of preventing infection by showing that he has reduced that kind of writing to absurdity, and raised a warning monument to all antiquaries and philologians that may succeed him."-Edin. Rev., April, 1803, 117. See, also, 128.

"We allude to a precious scheme of Mr. Valpy's, now in progress, of republishing the very worst edition of the Latin Classics. This indefatigable and zealous printer does not seem to have had the remotest idea that the value of the original Delphine editions consisted almost entirely in their scarcity-a merit which his own publication of course cannot possess. The Regent Classics are minute volumes, with short prefaces in bad Latin by a Mr. Carolus Coote."-BISHOP BLOMFIELD: Lon. Quar. Rev., xxii. (Jan. 1820) 303, n.

At the end of the Preface to the collection is a Latin tribute to Mr. Dyer for his great industry and critical

acumen.

Vanbrugh, Sir John, a descendant of a Flemish family, was b., according to the memoir prefixed to the collection of his plays, 1759, 2 vols. 12mo, in the parish of St. Stephen's, Wallbrook, London, 1666; entered the army as an ensign at the age of nineteen, and rose to the rank of captain; was for some time imprisoned in the Bastile; by the nomination of the excellent John Evelyn, was made. Secretary to the Commissioners for completing Greenwich Hospital, 1695; Clarencieux Kingat-Arms, 1705-25; knighted, 1714; Comptroller of the Royal Works, Jan. 6, 1714-15; Surveyor of the Works at Greenwich Hospital, Aug. 17, 1716; d. Mar. 26, 1726. Vanbrugh acquired distinction as a dramatic author and as an architect. The plays-all comedies, save The Country House, which is a farce-which appeared under his name are the following: 1. The Relapse; or, Virtue in Danger, 1697, 4to.

See, also, CONGREVE, WILLIAM; FARQUHAR, GEORGE: this volume was first published in 1840, r. 8vo. To Vanbrugh's Short Vindication of The Relapse and The Provoked Wife from Immorality and Profaneness, by the Author, 1698, 8vo, and the response to it, we have already alluded, (COLLIER, JEREMY, p. 409.) That neither the "Author" nor any other champion could successfully "vindicate" the indecency of these pieces will be readily granted. In his Æsop, and A Journey to London, he seems disposed to make some atonement for his offences against morality and common propriety.

"Sir John Vanbrugh has spirit, wit, and ease; but he is to the last degree gross and indelicate. He is one of the most im2508

moral of all our comedians. His Provoked Wife' is full of such indecent sentiments and allusions as ought to explode it out of all reputable society. His Relapse' is equally censurable; and these are his only two considerable pieces."-DR. BLAIR: Lects. on Rhet. and Belles-Lettres, Lect. XLVII.

"Vanbrugh, who wrote with more nature and fire, though with more faultless art and precision, [than Congreve.]"-SMOLLETT: Hist. of England: George I., Notes.

"Vanbrugh and Farquhar, inferior to Congreve in real wit, and falling into the next period, were perhaps his equals in the composition of acting plays."-SIR WALTER SCOTT: Essay on the Drama, in Encyc. Brit., and in his Prose Works.

"Vanbrugh comes next, and holds his own fully with the best. He is no writer at all, as to mere authorship; but he ludicrous description, bordering on caricature. Though he did makes up for it by a prodigious fund of comic invention and not borrow from him, he was much more like Molière in genius than Wycherley was, who professedly imitated him. He has none of Congreve's graceful refinement, and as little of Wycherley's serious manner and studied insight into the springs of character; situations, where the different parties play upon one another's but his exhibition of it in dramatic contrast and unlooked-for failings and into one another's hands, keeping up the jest like a game at battledore and shuttlecock, and urging it on to the utmost verge of breathless extravagance, in the mere eagerness of the fray, is beyond that of any other of our writers."-HAZley, Congreve, Vanbrugh, and Farquhar. LITT: Lects. on the Eng. Comic Writers, Lect. IV.: On Wycher

"In humorous conception our admirable play The Provoked Husband, the best parts of which are due to Vanbrugh, seems to equal any thing he [Molière] has left. . . . The Relapse and The Provoked Wife of Vanbrugh have attained a considerable reputation. In the former, the character of Amanda is interesting; especially in the momentary wavering and quick recovery of her virtue. This is the first homage that the theatre had paid, since the Restoration, to female chastity; and, notwithstanding the vicious tone of the other characters, in which Vanbrugh has gone as great lengths as any of his contemporaries, we perceive the beginnings of a reaction in public spirit which gradually reformed and elevated the moral standard of the stage. The Provoked Wife, though it cannot be said to give any proofs of this sort of improvement, has some merit as a comedy; it is witty and animated, as Vanbrugh usually was; the character of Sir John Brute may not have been too great a caricature of real manners such as survived from the debased

reign of Charles; and the endeavour to expose the grossness of the older generation was itself an evidence that a better polish had been given to social life."-HALLAM: Lit. Hist. of Europe, 4th ed., 1854, iii. 514, 528.

"Vanbrugh almost as great a genius as ever lived. Sir John Brute-And this woman will get a husband!' Confederacy, from the French; with so much the air of an original! Who would have thought it?"-CHARLES JAMES FOX: Recollec. by S.

Rogers, 1859, 32.

How Van wants grace, who never wanted wit."-POPE. As an architect Sir John is best and most favourably His edifices did not escape the witticisms of the satirists known by the lofty piles of Blenheim and Castle Howard. Dr. Abel Evans (p. 564, supra) formed a permanent lodgof the day, and the poetical shafts of Dean Swift and castle-walls. ment, from which they will never be displaced, in his But the "6 trap" similitudes of the former were far less happy than goose-pie" and the "mouseEvans's famous epitaph:

"Lie heavy on him, Earth, for he Laid many a heavy load on thee!" But in some of these "heavy loads" great merits have been recognized:

"To speak of Vanbrugh in the language of a painter, he had originality of invention; he understood light and shadow, and had great skill in composition. Vanbrugh's fate was that of the great Perrault. Both were the objects of the petulant sarcasms of factious men of letters, and both have left some of the fairest monuments which, to this day, decorate their several countries, the façade of the Louvre, Blenheim, and Castle Howard."-SIR JOSHUA REYNOLDS: Works.

"The heaviness and enormity of Blenheim Castle have been greatly criticised; perhaps too severely. We may be too much Vanbrugh ridiculous was his applying to small houses a style bigoted to Greek and Roman architecture. What made of architecture which could not possibly succeed but in a large one. In a small house, where the grandeur of a whole cannot be attempted, the eye is at leisure to contemplate parts, and meets with frequent occasion of disgust."-WILLIAM GILPIN: Observations on the Mountains and Lakes of Cumberland and Westmoreland.

"Vanbrugh's faults were generally those of Michael Angelo. He was a painter's architect, and did not understand beauty of proportion and detail so well as the pictorial arrangement of lights and shadows; to produce which, in the Cinquecento, it is almost necessary to part with all the higher beauties of architecture."-PROF. WILLIAM HOSKING, of King's College, London': Encyc. Brit., 8th ed., iii. 1853, 455, art. Architecture.
