Excerpt from book: In the worst inn's worst room, with mat half-hung; The floors of plaister, and the walls of dung, On once a flock bed, but repair'd with straw, With tape-tyed curtains, never meant to draw, The George and Garter dangling from that bed Where tawdry yellow strove with dirty red, Great Villiers Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www. million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.

Excerpt from book: In the worst inn's worst room, with mat half-hung; The floors of plaister, and the walls of dung, On once a flock bed, but repair'd with straw, With tape-tyed curtains, never meant to draw, The George and Garter dangling from that bed Where tawdry yellow strove with dirty red, Great Villiers lies-alas! how chang'd from him, That life of pleasure, and that soul of whim! Gallant and gay, in Cliveden's proud alcove, The bow'r of wanton Shrewsbury and love; Or just as gay, at Council, in a ring Of mimick'd Statesmen, and their merry King. In 1742 Pope added the fourth book to the ' Dunciad,' and two years later the end came, and in May, at the age of fifty-six, he passed away as if in a sleep. BISHOP BERKELEY George Berkeley, the subtle and imaginative philosopher of a prosaic and unphilosophical age, was born in 1685 in Kilkenny on the banks of the Nore. The vale of the Nore is beautiful, and its scenery was well fitted to feed and stimulate the dreamy nature of the boy. He spent four years in Kilkenny school, ' the Eton of Ireland,' where Swift himself had been a scholar, and in 1700 he came to Trinity College, Dublin, where he remained for thirteen years. Locke's famous Essay was one of the textbooks in use at the university, and this with Plato's Dialogues seems to have been Berkeley's favourite reading, and his earliest writings were intended to further develop portions of the Essay or to combat parts of it which seemed to him to be erroneous. In 1709 Berkeley published an ' Essay towards a new Theory of Vision,' which is a development of some passages in Locke's second book. It is a very able and original piece of reasoning, and later researches have confirmed the truth of Berkeley's views. In the next year he published his ' Treatise concerning the Pri Books, History~~General, Longmans-Handbook-of-English-Literature~~R-McWilliam, 999999999, Longman's Handbook Of English Literature, R.
