same state it was in before this illness; I find this a very inconvenient time for solicitude about any thing."

"On the evening, when the symptoms of death came on, he said, "I shall die; but it will not be your fault.". When Lord and Lady Valentia came to see his Lordship, he gave them his solemn benediction, and said, "Be good, be virtuous, my Lord; you must come to this." Thus he conti nued giving his dying benediction to all around him. On Monday morning a lucid interval gave some small hopes, but these vanished in the evening; and he continued dying, but with very little uneasiness, till Tuesday morning, August 22, when between seven and eight o'clock he expired, almost without a groan.'

His Lordship was buried at Hagley; and the following inscription is cut on the side of his Lady's monument:

This unadorned stone was placed here
By the particular desire and express
Directions of the Right Honourable
GEORGE LORD LYTTELTON,
Who died August 22, 1773, aged 64.

Lord Lyttelton's Poems are the works of a man of literature and judgment, devoting part of his time to versification. They have nothing to be despised, and little to be admired. Of his Progress of Love,' it is sufficient blame to say that it is pastoral. His blank verse in 'Blenheim' has neither much force nor much elegance. His little performances, whether songs or epigrams, are sometimes sprightly, and sometimes insipid. His epistolary pieces have a smooth equability, which cannot much tire, because they are short, but which seldom elevates or surprises. But from this censure ought to be excepted his Advice to Be linda,' which, though for the most part written when he was very young, contains much truth and much prudence, very elegantly and vigorously expressed, and shews a mind at. tentive to life, and a power of poetry which cultivation might have raised to excellence.
