Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XL. ENGLAND IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. Dr Parr, who died in 1825, writes thus in his Diary:-- 'In the reign of Ptolemy Greece boasted of her Pleiad; England, in my day, may boast of a Decad of literary luminaries, Dr Samuel Butler, Dr Edward Maltby, bishop Blomfield, dean Monk, Mr E. H. Barker, Mr Kidd, Mr Burges, professor Dobree, professor Gaisford, and Dr Elmsley. They are professed critics: but in learning and taste Dr Routh of Oxford is inferior to none'1. The last of these, Martin Joseph Routh (1755--1854), died in the hundredth year of his age, after having been President of Magdalen for three and sixty years.

In supplementing that work Maltby, the pupil of Parr and the friend of Porson, received valuable assistance from both. 4 Rogers, Table Talk, Porsoniana, 325.
