About metaphysics was his sole interest this time he was removed from college and for the following eight years he lived in idleness at his father's home. The late teens, as we know, are strange, melancholy years especially if a boys' hands be idle. It was probably then that Hazlitt became an incurable sentimentalist.

But after took a while he was made a dramatic critic, and sensing his responsibility he set out upon an unright life with only occasional lapses. The charge against Hazlitt as a dramatic critic is that he is too literary. But he has bequeathed the London us certain dazzling descriptions of stage as it was in the early nineteenth century.
