Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Theron and Aspasio, Vol. 3 of 3: Or, a Series of Dialogues and Letters, Upon the Most Important and Interesting Subjects Not a Breeze swept over the Plains, to clear the Sky, and cool the Air; but it tended also to disperse our Doubts, and in-liven our Faith in the supreme all-sufficient good. Not a Cloud tinged the Firmament with radiant Colours, or amused the Sight with romantic Shapes; but We beheld a Picture of the present World, of its fading Acquisitions and the fantastic Joys, in the mimic Forms and the transitory Scene. - Even the weakest of the Insect-tribe, that skim the Air in sportive Silence, addressed Us with the strongest Incitements, and gave Us the loudest Calls, to be active in our Day, and useful in our Generation. They cried, at least when You lent them your Tongue, Such is vain Life, an idle Flight of Days, A still delusive Round of sickly Joys, A Scene of little Cares, and trifling Passions, If not ennobled by the Deeds of virtue. How often, at the approach of sober Eve, have We stole along the Cloyster of a sequestred Bower; attentive to the Tale of some querulous Current, that seemed to be struck with horror at the awful Gloom; and complained with heavier Murmurs, as it passed under the blackening Shades, and along the Root-obstructed Channel.
