To which is added, A PARAPHRASE on Part of the Book of JOB. A NEW EDITION, Corrected by the Author.. Sunt lacryma rerum, & mentem mortalia tangunt. VIRG. LONDON:: Printed for A. MILLAR, in the Strand; and M.DCC.LXV הספר A 'S the Occafion of this Poem was real, not fictitious; fo the method pursued in it, was rather impofed, by what Spontaneously arofe in the author's mind, on that occafion, than meditated, or defigned. Which will appear very probable from the nature of it. For it differs from the common mode of Poetry, which is from long narrations to draw short morals. Here, on the contrary, the narrative is short, and the morality arifing from it makes the bulk of the Poem. The reafon of it is, That the facts mentioned did naturally pour thefe moral reflections on the thought of the writer. |
