7825. SENECA, Moral system of.—

Seneca
is a fine moralist, disfiguring his work at
times with some Stoicisms and affecting too
much antithesis and point, yet giving us on the
whole a great deal of sound and practical morality.—
To William Short. Washington ed. vii, 139. Ford ed., x, 144.
(M. 1819)
