"He knows to live, who keeps the middle state, And neither leans on this side or on that; Nor stops, for one bad cork, his butler's pay; Swears, like Albutius, a good cook away; Nor lets, like Nevius, every error pass—The musty wine, foul cloth, or greasy glass." Horace Smith's novel "Interludes..." is a compilation of essays, a sketch and verses of poetry. Smith's first essay is a great piece on literary criticism and he gives at least six qualities of what good criticism should look like. For as he says, "I am certain that if men and women would believe that it is important that they should form a true judgment upon things, and that they should speak or write it when required, we should get rid of a great deal of bad art, bad books, bad pictures, bad buildings, bad music, and bad morals..."

Excerpt from Interludes: Being Two Essays, a Story, and Some Verses Criticism is the art of judging. As reasonable persons we are called upon to be constantly pronouncing judg ment, and either acting upon such judgment ourselves or inviting others to do so. I do not know how anything can be more important with respect to any matter than the forming a right judgment about it. We pray that we may have a right judgment in all things. I am aware that it is an old saying that people are better than their Opinions, and it is a mercy that it is so, for very many persons not only are full of false opinions upon almost every subject, but even think that it is of no consequence what opinions they hold. Whether a particular action is morally right or wrong, or whether a book or a picture is really good or bad, is a matter upon which they form either no judgment or a wrong one with perfect equanimity. The secret of this state of mind is, I think, that it is on the Whole too much bother to form a correct judgment and it is so much easier to let things slide, and to take the good the gods provide you, than to.

Excerpt from Interludes (Third Series): Being Two Essays, a Ghost Story, and Some Verses IN the Preface to my volume of Poems published in 1897, I seized the opportunity of thanking my critics for their kindly welcome of my Interludes. I now have further to thank them for their still heartier appreciation of my Poems. With some temerity I challenged their approval of the Sacred Verses; and I am rather surprised, and much pleased to find that they meet with general acceptance. That they are not as good as they ought to be is very certain, and I wish they were better. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
