Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Journal of Summer Time in the Country May 1st. - Gray always sketched upon the spot the general features of a landscape, and advised his friends to do the same. "You have nothing," he wrote to one, "but to transcribe your little red books, if they are not rubbed out; for I conclude you have not trusted anything to memory, which is ten times worse than a lead pencil." The wish is felt by every reader, that Gray had given us more of his own diaries; or had composed them on a different principle. His stories of home-travel, communicated to Dr. Wharton, are incomparable. But, for the most part, he hid his sweet and learned thoughts in his own bosom. Golden days in the country were lost in critical inquiries respecting insects and plants; or in talk with fishermen about uncertain fins and scales.
