Select Works of the British Poets: With Biographical and Critical Prefaces, Հատոր 1"The object of this work, which is entirely new, is to comprise, within a single volume, a chronological series of our classical poets, from Ben Johnson to Beattie, without mutilation or abridgment, with biographical and critical notices of their authors. The contents of this volume are so comprehensive, that few poems, it is believed, are omitted, except such as are of secondary merit, or unsuited to the perusal of youth" -- Page [i]. |

... Canst thou not tell me of a gentle pair Plucking ripe clusters from the tender
shoots ; That likest thy Narcissus are ? ... 300 Tell me but where , That in the
colours of the rainbow live , 240 Sweet queen of parley , daughter of the sphere !

Moon , You may as well spread out the unsunn'd heaps That wont'st to love the

visage through an amber cloud , And tell'me it is safe , as bid me hope And
disinherit ...
