Mr. Davison (the printer) has some Government work, which has engrossed him too much of late. He now
CAMPBELL’S ‘LIVES OF THE POETS.’333
promises to put all his force upon the ‘Specimens,’ and to make up for his recent delays. I take the opportunity of assuring you how much I feel obliged by the labour which you are now bestowing upon the ‘Lives,’ which have become very interesting, and cannot fail to do you honour. I will send you Hayley’s ‘Cowper;’ it affords material for a very long and a peculiarly interesting life,—in which you can weave innumerable passages of great beauty from his letters, and all the touching part of the life written by himself. I assure you I think, when you have given scope to yourself, that your prose is not to be surpassed. I expect very very great things in your ‘Life of Burns.’ Don’t be afraid of room.

Most truly yours,
John Murray.
