cultivated by varidus and inceffant ftudy, than 
all the ardent hopes and fond anticipations of 
the father and the-friend.were buried ia his

{cience which was early awakened in this la- 
mented youth, fought its gratification in thofe 
manly ftudies which not only elevate and adorn 
the converfation, but ftrengthen and expand the 
imagination and the reafon, while they vary 
and enlarge the refources of the mind ; pe
