Excerpt from Life and Times of John Milton A Number of years ago, Southey declared that a life of John Milton was "yet a desideratum in British literature." This is no longer true of what may be distinctively termed, English letters; but it is still true of American literature, which, up to this date, has never produced a biography of that illustrious republican and poet. Before the recent appearance of Mr. Masson's admirable and elaborate Life of Milton, of which an American firm undertook some years ago to give a reprint, but of which only the first volume has been published, those who were curious to acquaint themselves with the details of his eventful and beneficent career, were obliged to glean their scanty information from some six or eight outline sketches, usually prefixed as introductory memoirs to the various editions of his works. But these, however useful as summaries of fact, are far below the dignity of independent biography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Life and Times of John Milton Oua task. Is a grateful one - to write the history of a man who united in himself the two high and honour able'charaeters of patriot and Post. Such men are rarely to be met with. There is something too etherial in the feelings of the poet - something too inimitable in his views - to comport with that vivid perception of the common-place, every-day, localized circumo stances of life, that is essential to the heart's blood of the patriot. The poet, like the metaphysician, is too much given to generalizing, to have his mind very strongly impressed with the weight and value of ordinary and isolated facts. His mind sweeps through the aggregate of the incidents and circum stances that constitute the natural and social world, giving only just so much attention to the several parts of which it is made up, as is necessary to constitute a sublime picture 0 the mighty whole. Sueh a man can scarcely become a patriot. Lie must, indeed, possess enlarged and liberal feelings - his sympathies must be with the multitude of his fellow-men - the sight of injustice and oppression must ever render him uneasy; but to be a patriot, it is not enough that he mourn or rejoice, as social misery or happiness predominates; he must be so strongly impressed with the enormity of social evils so much alive to the duties of every citizen in the struggle to annihilate them, and so thoroughly satisfied of the causes out of which they arise, as to be impelled forward into the arena of political strife, and encounter, at the hazard of liberty and of life, the deadly hostility of the agents of evil. The man of sirong oetieal perceptions and feelings, is not likely to he thus mox ed and operated upon, by the individual circumstances of others. But these are exceptions, and when we meet with them, either amongst our contemporaries, or associated with the worthies of by-gone times, they command our edmir ing reverence, and almost idolatrous homage. Such a man was John Milton. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from John Milton: A Biography Several obvious reasons may account for this neglect; and the first of these is, that a somewhat repulsive influence obstructs the inquirer at the very threshold of this rare but almost unexplored cabinet of British literature. The very names of many of Milton's prose works present themselves to all but the learned, as an array of quaint forms, which frown upon the uninitiated. Their style, like the waters of the fabled stream, is turbid with the grains of classic gold; and the literary habits of the writer were so closely connected with ancient and foreign literature, as to deprive his writings of that strictly national character which is essential to a wide popularity.

Excerpt from Life of John Milton After leaving his Essex pedagogue, Milton came under the private tuition of Thomas Young, a Scotchman from St. Andrews, who afterwards rose to be master of Jesus College, Cambridge. It would appear from the elegies subsequently addressed to him by his pupil that he first taught Milton to write Latin verse. This instruction was no doubt intended to be preliminary to the youth's entrance at St. Paul's School, where he must have been admitted by 1620 at the latest.

Excerpt from The Life of John Milton, Vol. 6: Narrated in Connection With the Political, Ecclesiastical, and Literary History of His Time; 1660-1674 IT is naturally with some satisfaction that I complete at last a work begun so long ago. It is a satisfaction also, to myself at least, to have been able to persevere to the very end in the original plan, omitting nothing, slurring nothing, that the plan required. In the present volume, for example, I have done my best towards the conjunction of a sufficient History of the Restoration and its Consequences with the concluding Fourteen Years of Milton's Biography.

Excerpt from Some Account of the Life and Writings of John Milton: Derived Principally From Documents in His Majesty's State-Paper Office, Now First Published Sequestration, of i the orders of those Commis sioners respecting the sequestration -of Estates, of the reports of their subordinate officers, and of the correspondence with sub-commissioners and other agents in every part'of the kingdom The second series exhibits the original parti culars of property and estates, for which Royalists were permitted to compound on the payment of a fine. These papers are peculi arly valuable in illustrating the family history as well as the various property of individuals, throughout the kingdom, during the time of the Great Rebellion. Of these, by the continued industry and accurate attention of Mr. Lemon, 'no lessthan one hundred and sixty seven folio volumes had been recovered and arranged, when (in 1825 also) he transmitted to me from this invaluable collection, the sequestra'tion-pa 'pers relating to Mr. Po'well, the father of Mil ton's first wife, in whibh Milton himself is par ticularly concerned and to Sir Christopher Milton, the brother of the poet. Other papers and letters, from the same office, alike unknown till now, and of the greatest service to the bio graphy of Milton, have since, at various times, been sent to me by this gentleman empowered as he was at all times so to do, from the very first exertion of his kindness, by the permission.

Excerpt from English Prose Writings of John Milton There are omitted from this volume all the writings in which Milton replied to the Opponents of his views. The controversies of 250 years ago travelled by many paths in which we care no longer to assert a right of way. At all times, the Reformer who is answering opponents has his course of argument determined by the reason or the unreason Of other men. Forms of reply dependent upon accidents Of the attack are only to be read with measured judgment by those who have read the attack also and Often when we have read both, we have heard a sound of battle in the air that has appealed to our imaginations and disturbed our judgment. The battle Of Opinion rolls forward to new ground from century to century. The great truths are immutable, the applications Of them vary with the change of time.
