The most beautiful forms have something about them like weakness, minuteness or imperfection. But it is not every eye that perceives these blemishes. It must be an eye long used to the contemplation and comparison of these forms and which, by a long habit of observing what every set of objects of the same kind have in common, has acquired the power of discerning what each wants in particular. This long, laborious comparison should be the first study of the painter who aims at the greatest style. By this means he acquires a just idea of the beautiful forms. He corrects Nature by herself, her imperfect state by her more perfect. His eye being enabled to distinguish the accidental deficiencies, excrescences and deformities of things from their general figures, he makes out an abstract idea of their forms more perfect than any one original Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Text Any textual data included in the document Working transcription: I suppose the mere act of travelling [is] not very likely to open a man’s mind or amend and enlarge his spirit if he be conceited and shut up within himself and his own good opinion of himself in the beginning. As it would be of small advantage to a man to live in a house with 10,000 windows if he never looked out of one of them, so a man who goes around the world constantly shut up in his own self-satisfactions and prejudices can get very little out of it. Indeed, it may be said of such people that they cannot see anything for themselves. They are always in their own way. They themselves are the obstacle always interposed between their own mental state and the sub/object. Without reflection and abstraction from self it may be questioned whether any tangible sub/object in the universe is capable of producing a very beneficial effect on the mind. Mount Vesuvio for example is a vast and always changing mass of fire and cinders. There is nothing much more remarkable in that ipso facto than there would be in a gigantic gas works. It is when a man […] himself to consider that an action he beholds in that Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

During the remainder of the progress of the fight the two men watch for this man. In the moment of his emerging from behind some concealment of rigging or sail the quarter master points up and cries out “There he is”. In the same moment the quarter master falls shot by the same man through the mouth. In the same moment the midshipman fires and is so convinced that he has hit the man that as soon as possible after the battle is over he climbs onto that main top to see. Sure enough there he finds the man lying dead with a ball in his heart. It is a circumstance not belonging to this story but not un[…] of the delicacy or want of delicacy of the time that Nelson’s body was said to have been very […] conveyed to Gibraltar in a cask of rum and that any really or pretendedly choice rum offered on the market for a long time afterwards was called “The Admiral”. But it is easier to transmit the […] weaknesses and grimness of men’s bodies than the worth of their souls and so […] fiction may have had some foundation of truth in it.

Thus when the Admiral persists in his usual courtly custom of dressing himself in full uniform with gold lace, silk stockings and God knows what orders and decorations, he is warned by his officer(s) most emphatically that his life is particularly sought by the French and that he exposes himself to very great danger. It is represented to him that the enemy has a new custom of carrying riflemen in the tops of his ships and that by making himself conspicuous to the meanest observation as the Admiral of the Fleet, he hazards his safety and, necessarily with it, the fortune of the day. Apart from these representations no man can better know the real extent of the danger of such a practice than the great man to whom they were made because it is a fact in his history that he had always opposed himself to this use of the rifle as cowardly and cruel. Nevertheless he persists, is shot in the back and is […].
