It appears as little as may be ; and when it does a courtesy, would willingly conceal it. It chooses silently to forego its own claims; not officiously to withdraw them. It engages a man to prefer his neighbour to himself, because he really esteems him; because he is tender of his character; because he thinks it more manly, more christianlike, to descend a little himself, than to degrade another. It respects in a word, the credit and fame of a neighbour. The mimic of this amiable virtue, false politeness, on the other hand, is ambitious, servile, timorous. It affects to be popular; is solicitous to please, and to be taken notice of. The man of this character does not offer, but obtrudes his civilities; because he would merit by his assiduity; because, in despair of winning regard by any worthier qualities, he would be sure to make the most of this; and lastly, because, of all things, he would dread, by the omission of any punctilious observance, to give offence. In a word, this sort of politeness respects, for its immedi ate object, the favour and esteem of our neighbour. Four Syllables, accented on the third.
