Browning and Lord Coleridge.

Lord Coleridge, in his presidential .address at the Salt echeeis, SaHaire, England, not long ago, told a good story. Browning Tent him one of his works to road, and afterward meeting the poet, the Lord Chief Justice said to him: “What I could understand I heartily admired, and parts ought to immortal; but as to much of it I really could not tell whether I admired it or not, because for the life of me I could not understand it." Browning replied: “If a reader of your caliber understands 10 per cent, of what I write I think I ought to be content.”
