Description:Excerpt from Relliquiae Philologiae: Or Essays in Comparative Philology Herbert Dukinfield Darbishire, the son of Mr Herbert Darbishire, was born at Belfast on the 13th of May, 1863. His mother's maiden name was Bruce, and he came of a good stock, both morally and intellectually. He received his early education, for nearly seven years, at the Royal Academical Institution in his native town. He afterwards entered the Queen's College, Belfast, where his career began in 1880 by his winning the Sullivan Scholarship, and ended in 1883 with his attaining a Senior Scholarship in Greek, Latin, and Ancient History. In the same year he obtained a first class with honours in Classics in the examination for the degree of B.A. in the Royal University of Ireland. In October, 1884, he came into residence at St John's College, Cambridge. He had already given good proof of his proficiency in Classics at the examination for Entrance Scholarships, but want of practice in Verse Composition prevented his attaining the place to which his general merits might well have entitled him. To the same cause it was due that, when he presented himself for the first part of the Classical Tripos at the end of the second year, he was placed in the second class, though in the first division of that class. Two years afterwards, in 1888, he was in the first class of the second part of the Classical Tripos, the subjects for which he obtained that position being classical scholarship and comparative philology. Meanwhile he had been elected to a foundation scholarship. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
