The present Chancellor is a type of the prevailing spirit. The name of Henry P.

Tate, Nahum, a son of Dr. Faithful Teat or Teate, (q. v.,) was b. in Dublin, 1652; matriculated at Trinity College, Dublin, at the age of sixteen: removed to London, where he adopted literature as a profession: succeeded Shadwell as Poet-Laureate in 1690; d. in the precincts of the Mint, Southwark, (where he had for some time taken refuge from his creditors,) Aug. 12, 1715.

An Essay for promoting Psalmody, 1710, Svo. He published about ten dramatic pieces, (see Biog. Dramat.,) including an alteration of Shakspeare's Lear, 1681, 4to, which last kept possession of the stage for nearly a century; and a number of translations from the Greek, Latin, and French; and has long had ascribed to him-it appears, erroneously, (see Blakey's Lit. of Angling, 1856, 317)-The Innocent Epicure; or, The Art of Angling, a Poem, 1697, 12mo; 2d ed., 1713, 12mo; 3d ed., with the title of Angling, a Poem, 1741, 12mo. In 1713 he edited The Monitor, a short-lived penny paper. As a coadjutor of Dryden (p. 523, supra) and of Nicholas Brady (q. v., and STERNHOLD, THOMAS, No. 1) the psalmodist, he has already claimed our notice. His official Birthday Odes are not considered specimens of the loftiest style of poetical eloquence

"Nahum Tate of all my predecessors must have ranked the lowest of the Laureates if he had not succeeded Shadwell."SOUTHEY: Life of Cooper.

But Tate's latest biographers are disposed to question the justice of this verdict:

"Could Southey, with all his varied book-lore, have been ignorant of the verses of Eusden? and is he not in this estimate somewhat polite and merciful to his predecessor, Pye?"-Austin and Ralph's Lives of the Poets-Laureate, 1853, 222, (q. r.)

"There is an English word-joiner-author we will not call him-who has had the temerity to accomplish two things, either of which would have been enough to have conferred upon him a bad immortality. Nahum Tate has succeeded, to an extent which defies all competition, in degrading the Psalms of David and the Lear of Shakspere to the condition of being tolerated, and perhaps even admired, by the most dull, gross, and antipoetical capacity. These were not easy tasks; but Nahum Tate has enjoyed more than a century of honour for his labours; and his new versions of the Psalms are still sung on (like the Shepherd in Arcadia piped) as if they would never be old, and his Lear was the Lear of the Playhouse at the time of the publication of our first edition, with one solitary exception of a modern heresy

in favour of Shakspere."-CHARLES KNIGHT: Pictorial Shaksp., 2d ed., 1867, v. 465.
