Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jerusalem Delivered, Vol. 1 of 2: An Heroic Poem, Translated From the Italian of Torquato Tasso Madam, The approach the High and the Illustrious has been, in all ages, the privilege of Poets; and though Translators cannot justly claim the fame honour, yet they naturally follow their Authors as Attendants; and I hope that, in return for having enabled Tasso to diffuse his fame through the British Dominions, I may be introduced by him to the presence of Your Majesty. Tasso has a peculiar claim to Your Majesty´s favour, as a Follower and Panegyrist of the House of Este, which has one common Ancestor with the House of Hanover; and in reviewing his life, it is not easy to forbear a wish that he had lived in a happier time, when he might, among the Descendants of that illustrious Family, have found a more liberal and potent patronage.
