13 vols. (1902-1906). According to P. L. Chaver, "Hazlitt's Contributions to the Edinburgh Review," R.E.S., 4 (October 1928), 385, "Waller and Glover followed very closely the list given by Mr. Ireland in his work of 1868." In List of Writings of William Hazlitt and Leigh Hunt (1970 reprint from 1868), p. 75, Alexander Ireland merely lists works from the Edinburgh as by Hazlitt without specifying the basis for the attribution. Presumably he included the review of Letters of Horace Walpole because the style seems Hazlitt's, an understandable error for one who had read no Reynolds.

21 vols. (1930-1934). Hereafter all references to this edition will consist only of roman numerals for volumes and arabic numerals for pages.

Derived from either John vi.15: "[Jesus] departed again into a mountain himself alone" or Shakespeare, 3 Henry VI, V.vi.83: "I am myself alone" or from a fusion of the two.

New Writings of Hazlitt: Second Series (1927), pp. 113-116, 179-185. The attempt to restore the letter to Hazlitt by Herschel M. Sikes in "Hazlitt, the London Magazine, and the 'Anonymous Reviewer,'" Bulletin of the New York Public Library, 65 (1961), 159-174, further underscores the difficulty of distinguishing Hazlitt's prose from Reynolds'.

The first two in IV; the last two in V. A View of the English Stage reprinted theatrical reviews from periodicals, 1813-1817. I can swear that all these works are not contaminated by a single hath, except of course in quotations, because I have reread them all to check. I can report also that hath does not appear in any of Hazlitt's prose included in Russell Noyes, ed., English Romantic Poetry and Prose (1956), which in my teaching I checked incidentally while reading for other purposes.

As a substantial sample, I have checked "Crabbe's Poems," Edinburgh Review, 12 (1808), 131-151; "Alison's Essays on the Nature and Principles of Taste," 18 (1811), 1-46; "Wordsworth's The Excursion," 24 (1814), 1-30; and "Keats's Endymion and Poems," 34 (1820), 203-213.
