an Introduction by F. Pollock, Lon., 1879, 2 vols. 8vo. "A collection of such of his papers and lectures as were addressed to non-technical audiences. Clifford in tended to remodel them into a definite statement of his views on philosophical and other subjects, to be called The Creed of Science.' The whole book is eloquent with the fervour of an enthusiast who threw himself into the pursuit of truth in the firm belief that therein lies the only hope of good for that humanity which he loved so passionately. It is an eloquence chastened by an extraordinary simplicity of style and a resolute seeking after clearness, but it is not the less effective for that."-Sat. Rev., xlviii. 240.

"In these essays there is very little appearance of scientific precision. The doctrine of Mr. Darwin is made the basis of ethics without any preliminary enquiry whether it will bear the weight imposed on it. A reflective reader will seek in vain among these papers for a clear definition of the extent and final end of action.. Clifford's moral teaching is not adequately reasoned out."-J. SULLY: Acad., xvii. 133.

"Never was an intenser illustration than is spread out in these pages of the chaotic state of our contemporary thinking, or a creed on the whole less fit to be proclaimed to the people as the matured and classified result of scientific thought. There are, of course, exquisitely simple and vivid statements of particular physical theories."-Nation,

"Its use will be found in giving the mathematician an increased interest in his own work, rather than in opening up the mysteries of that work to the outside world, though the explanations are so fundamental that the non-mathematician, if only he have good natural faculty in that line, may peruse it with advantage."-Ath., No. 3011.

He has left his mark on contemporary English thought and sentiment, and his writings, fragmentary though they are, may probably carry some bright flashes of insight to other generations than our own."-JAMES SULLY: Acad., xvii. 134.

"As a mathematical writer Clifford was marked by a keen power of imagination, rich in its suggestions of new lines of thought and discovery: he was a standing example of the fact that the true man of science, especially the mathematician, is the man of speculation, of tested theory, of keen, albeit disciplined, imagination."-LESLIE STEPHEN: Dict. of Nat.

His name is probably familiar to many who have never read his poems, from the mention of him in the writings and biographies of the time, and the high estimation in which he was held by M. Arnold, Ein. erson, and others. His "Bothie of Toper-na-Fuosich," (afterwards changed to "Bothie of Tober-na-Vuolich,") and his revised edition of Dryden's translation of Plutarch's Lives, are mentioned ante, vol. i.; and a volume of poems which he published in conjunction with Thomas Burbidge is mentioned under the name of the latter, supra.
