I found it to my great delight in a new used copy of the Norton Anthology of English Literature, book 1, that I purchased at a local book store. My own first copy, dating back to the 70 s .has finally fallen to pieces. In looking for the section on Johnson, I saw the Ode, read it and was instantly taken by a few of the images that just leapt out at me. The idea of Jove tossing us about was remarkable. The lines Where Priam and his sons are laid./Is nought but Ashes and a Shade incredibly beautiful. I'm a big Johnson fan and have read two fantastic bios on him in the last year or so. I was also delighted to come across this web site today. Look forward to reading from time to time. I chanced upon Johnson’s tsitrlanaon of the Ode of Horace just a few days ago.
