RECOLLECTIONS Emerson's Visits To England In 1833, 1847-8, And
1872-3. It was in the month of August, 1833?nearly fifty years

not know what to make of it. The originality of his thoughts, the
consummate beauty of the language in which they were clothed, the
calm dignity of his bearing, the absence of all oratorical effort,
and the singular directness and simplicity of his manner, free from
the least shadow of dogmatic assumption, made a d...
