The Wolf. Though his early education had been rather neglected, Shield's thirst for knowledge led to exertions which enabled him to teach himself much more than, in all probability, he would have learned in a grammar school. He devoted all his spare hours to reading, and well digested what he read. Besides, during the greater part of his life, he mixed much with men of letters, whose society Was his delight, and by whose conversation he profited. His moral character stood unimpeached detraction herself never ventured to assail it, though the spirit of the age was comparatively gross and scurrilous. Such were the uprightness of his conduct and the sweet ness of his temper, that he won the confidence of honest men, moved without offending less scrupulous persons, and appeased the most irascible and vehement. Among other proofs of his honourable feeling, it is stated by Mr. Reynolds, in his Life and Times, that when he presented him, by Mr. Harris's desire, with one hundred guineas. As part payment for composing an opera which had proved unsuccessful, Shield declined the offer, saying, I thank Mr. Harris, but I cannot receive money which I feel I have not earned.
