Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. George Herbert: With Remarks on His Writings, and a Sketch of His Life The Mission of Poetry is refining, pure and holy. If it be not, it will not last, descend the stream of time, and be cherished from generation to generation through succeeding ages. It is only as the heroic partakes of this influence, in the form of noble sentiment, that it enjoys a similar immortality: whilst wit, humour, and description are doomed, however admirable in their way, to a much more limited existence. Upon the truth of these great laws and canons of criticism rests the claim of George Herbert to be ever more revived and perpetuated in the poetic literature of England.
