Excerpt from Two Essays Upon Matthew Arnold With Some of His Letters, to the Author

Definitions, however, cannot be more than weak efforts reaching towards the truth; they are all bound to fall short, to press unduly upon a single aspect of it, to define it partially; though, in this case, the first half of Johnson's epigram is, perhaps, entirely true: Matthew Arnold was a labourer " in almost every field of literature;" it is this width of range, this universality of his, which gives him an unique position among contemporary men of letters: He "saw life steadily, and saw it whole."

But, though his touch has always the gifts of beauty, and has always fascination, he can endue things with even higher qualities than these.
