Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wild Flowers: Or Pastoral and Local Poetry A Man of the first eminence, in whose day (fortunately perhaps for me) I was not destined to appear before the public, or to abide the Herculean crab-tree of his criticism. Dr. Johnson, has said, in his preface to Shakspeare, that - "Nothing can please many, and please long, but just representations of general nature," My representations of nature, whatever may be said of their Justness, are not general, unless we admit, what I suspect to be the case, that nature in a village is very much like nature every where else. It will be observed that all my pictures are from humble life, and most of my heroines servant maids. Such I would have them: being fully persuaded that, in no other way would my endeavours, either to please or to instruct, have an equal chance of success.
