Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chase: A Poem If to these be added, historical digressions relative to the manners of different stages of society and periods of the world with respect to this object, intermixed, perhaps, with a portion of mythology, which might without force be introduced, it will appear that a poem on hunting may possess compass and elevation enough to prove interesting even to those who are not practically attached to the sports of the field. The poem of Mr. Somerville, however, is much less a philosophical than it is a descriptive one. The writer was a real, not a speculative, sportsman ;and it was not till fixed to his elbowchair by infirmity, that he thought of writing on the chafe, instead of following it.
