Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Mark Akenside and John Dyer

IF it rained knowledge, said Johnson to Boswell, exulting in his canvass of Lord Marchmont, about Pope, I'd hold out my hand. Humbler biographers are expected to take more pains, although their in dustry is often unfruitful. The history of Akenside has been investigated by Mr. Bucke, the Rev. Alex ander Dyce, and the latest' Editor of Johnson's Lives. I have not been able to make much addition to their stores. The life of Akenside by Mr. Dyce, is particularly careful, and must always be consulted with advantage.
