Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Thomas Gray: With an Account of the Life and Writings of the Author Homas gray was born in Cornhill, in the city of London, on the 26th of December, 1716. His father, Philip Gray, was a money-scrivener; but being of an indolent and profuse disposition, he rather diminished than improved his paternal fortune. Our Author received his classical education at Eton School, under Mr. Antrobus, his mother's brother, a man of sound learning and refined taste, who directed his nephew to those pursuits which laid the foundation of his future literary fame. During his continuance at Eton, he contracted a friendship with Mr. Horace Walpole, well known for his knowledge in the fine arts and Mr. Richard West, son of the Lord Chancellor of Ireland, a youth of very promising talents.
