Perhaps the two most interesting talks are those on Garrick and Sheridan; they are nothing more than anecdote after anecdote, no critical analysis of the men: still they cannot fail to impress the reader. Here and there we find a touch of orginality, perhaps in no conversation more than in "essays in titles...
