Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of the English Poets: With Prefaces, Biographical and Critical To The Right Honourable Robert, Earl of Oxford, and Earl Mortimer. Such were the notes thy once-lov´d Poet sung, Till death untimely stopp´d his tuneful tongue. Oh, just beheld, and lost! admir´d, and mourn´d! With softest manners, gentled arts adorn´d! Blest in each science, blest in every strain; Dear to the Muse, to Harley dear - in vain! For him thou oft hast bid the world attend, Fond to forget the statesman in the friend: For Swift and him, despis´d the farce of state, The sober follies of the wife and great; Dextrous, the craving, fawning croud to quit, And pleas´d to ´scape from flattery to wit. Absent or dead, still let a friend be dear, (A sigh the absent claims, the dead a tear) Recall those nights that clos´d thy toilsome days, Still hear thy Parnell in his living lays: Who, careless now, of interest, fame, or fate, Perhaps forgets that Oxford e´er was great; Or, deeming meanest what we greatest call, Beholds thee glorious only in thy fall.
