Consider, first their lives. Both were brought up in homes that knew the pinch of poverty, Dick- ens's boyhood was associated with a debtors’ prison, which reminds us that in one respect their early years differed. for Burns‘ parents were of the sincere, hard-working, godly type, while Dickens's father. Micawber, of, "David Copperfield." was a thrlftless, careless, happy- go-lucky mortal, into whose life, strange to say. something did "tum up" that was beyond his wild- est lmagmatiomand that was a son who was a. literary genius.

Whether college life would have been s help is o. debated point. would it have meant the sacrifice of the heart to the intellect? If so, then college life would have been fatal to Bums and Dickens. for both owed their great power over their fellows to the fact that they wrote from the heart.
