Lydia Maria Child, Letters of Lydia Maria Child (ed. John Greenleaf Whittier, Wendell Phillips, Harriet Winslow Sewall), To the same. (search)
To the same. Norridgewock, November 21, 1819.
I have long indulged the hope of reading Virgil in his own tongue.
I have not yet relinquished it. I look forward to a certain time when I expect that hope, with many others, will be realized. .. I usually spend an hour, after I retire for the night, in reading Gibbon's Roman Empire.
The pomp of his style at first displeased me ; but I think him an admirable historian.
There is a degree of dignified elegance about this work which I think well suited to the subject.
