Synopsis

Excerpt from Elegant Extracts, or Useful and Entertaining Pieces of Poetry, Selected for the Improvement of Youth, in Speaking, Reading, Thinking, Composing, and in the Conduct of Life: Being Similar in Design to Elegant Extracts in Prose

It will be readily acknowledged, that ideas and precepts of all kinds, whether of morality or fcience, make a deeper impreflion when inculcated by the viva city, the painting, the melody of poetical language. And what is thus deeply impreffed will alfo long remain; for metre and rhyme naturally catch hold of the memory, as the tendrils of the vine cling round the branches of the elm.
