Tis gone!” The keeper soon after left him and the next morning he died in the year 1743. He was buried in the churchyard of St. Peter, at the expense of the keeper.
Such were the life and death of Richard Savage, a man equally distinguished by his virtues and vices; and at once remarkable for his weaknesses and abilities.

Soft pity touched the mighy masters soul;
Adown his cheek the tear unbidden stole,
Stole unperceiv'd, he turned his head and dryed

The overflowing of humanity in [of] Pliny's temper breaks out upon all occations [occasions], but he discovers it in nothing more strongly than by the impressions [impression] which this little story appears to have made upon him, true benevolence indeed, extends itslef thro' the whole compass of existence, and sympathizes with the distress of every creature capable of sensation. Little mindss [minds] may be apt to consider a compassion of this inferior kind, as an instance of weakness; but it is undoubtedly the evidence of a noble minde / nature. Homer thought it not unbecoming the character of even [even of] a Hero, to melt into tears at [the-crossed out] a distress like this [of this sort][page break] and has given us a most amiable and affecting picture of Ulysses weeping over his faithful dog Argus, when he expires at his feet [<strong>page break</strong>] and has given us a picture amiable and affecting [a most amiable and affecting picture] of Ulysses weeping over his faithful dog Argus when he expires [expired] at his feet .<br /><br /><p class="p1">Soft pity touched the mighy masters soul; <br />Adown his cheek the tear unbidden stole, <br />Stole unperceiv'd, he turned his head and dryed <br />The Drop humane -- ----Pope<br /><br /></p>
