Excerpt from The Vision of Mirzah Joseph Addison was born May 1st, 1672, at Milston, near Ambresbury, Wiltshire, England. His father, the Reverend Launcelot Addison, was Dean of Litchfield. He received his early education at schools in the vicinity of his home and afterward was sent to Charterhouse, where the memorable intimacy between him and Steele first began. At the early age of fifteen he entered Queen's College, Oxford, and when he had been there about two years, his remarkable skill in Latin verse procured him a demyship at Magdalen. He obtained his degree of Master of Arts in 1693 and a fellowship five years later. During his university career Addison devoted himself to the study of the Latin poets and at that time he had some idea of making poetry his life work. It was through his verse that he attracted the attention of Lord Somers and Charles Montagu, whose influence secured for him a pension of 300 pounds a year from the Crown to enable him to travel abroad.
