The Golden Treasury
This book in its progress has recalled often to my memory a man with whose friendship we were once
honoured, to whom no region of English literature was unfamiliar, and who, whilst rich in all the noble gifts
of nature, was most eminently distinguished by the noblest and the rarest,--just judgment and high-hearted
patriotism. It would have been hence a peculiar pleasure and pride to dedicate what I have endeavoured to
make a true national Anthology of three centuries to Henry Hallam. But he is beyond the reach of any human
tokens of love and reverence; and I desire therefore to place before it a name united with his by associations
which, whilst Poetry retains her hold on the minds of Englishmen, are not likely to be forgotten.
