Steele, for one, had certainly succeeded in putting himself, and his way of taking the world-for this pioneer of an everybody's literature had his subjectivities-into books. What a survival of one long-past day, for instance, in A Ramble from Richmond to London! What truth to the surface of common things, to their direct claim on our interest! yet with what originality of effect in that truthfulness, when he writes, for instance: I went to my lodgings, led by a light, whom I put into the discourse of his private economy, and made him give me an account of the charge, hazard, profit, and loss of a family that depended upon a link. [11] It was one of his peculiarities, he tells us, to live by the eye far more than by any other sense (a peculiarity, perhaps, in an Englishman), and this is what he sees at the early daily service then common in some City churches.
