CHAPTER I.
SAMUEL PEPYS AND THE WORLD HE LIVED IN.
CHAPTER I.
PEPYS BEFORE THE DIARY.
“He was a pollard man, without the top (i. e. the reason as the source of ideas, or immediate yet not sensuous truths, having their evidence in themselves; or the imagination or idealizing power, by symbols mediating between the reason and the understanding), but on this account more broadly and luxuriantly branching out from the upper trunk.”—Coleridge’s MS. note in his copy of the “Diary” (Notes and Queries, 1st S. vol. vi. p. 215).
