Capitolo 61
who not he treats as such with respect to their quality, but to
their numbers and the cheap quality of their taste. Its words are as
it follows: "Segrais has distinguished the readers of poetry,
according to their ability to judge, in three classes." [Him
you/he/she would have said the same of writers even if he had arranged.] "In the
it forms lower he puts those that he calls Les Petits Esprits, this way
things like our public of superior-gallery in a theater that it likes
nothing but the peel and bark of the intelligence, and he/she prefers a game of words a,
conceitedness, an epigram, in front of solid sense and elegant expression.
These are attacks rioting readers. If Virgil and Martial it ran him to Parliament-
men, we already know who would bring him/it. But although they did the
greater aspect in the field, and the loudest cried, the best of
it is them I am but a kind of French Huguenots or Dutch boors,
draws on herds, but it didn't naturalize: who don't have earths of
two pounds a year in Parnassus, and therefore it is not privileged
to sound. Their authors are of the same level, is all right for representing them
on the stage of an acrobat, or to be masters of the ceremonies in a
be born-garden; still these are theirs who has the more admirers. But it
it often happens, to their mortification that as they improve their readers
their escort of sense, how they is able reading the best books, and from
conversation with men of judgment, abandons soon them to them."
I don't have to dismiss this subject without observing that, as Mr.
Locke, in the aforementioned passage, you/he/she has discovered more anymore the
fertile source of the intelligence there is another of a rather contrary
nature to him that it likewise branches him in some son-in-laws.
For not only the similarity, but the opposition of the ideas does a lot of
it often produces the intelligence, how I could show in many small points, developed,
and antithesis in which I can possibly widen on some future
speculation.
