Excerpt from Poesias, Vol. 1
O interesse dos inglezes por Walter Scott, e seu roman cista querido; e anciedade de Paris por Mirabeau, o seu orador sem rival, dava - se em Lisboa por Bocage. Choravam todos como propria a sua perda. Amigos e conhecidos acu diam para saber noticias; contemplavam por um pouco a fronte já meia inclinada pela morte; e voltavam, correndo, aonde esperava o concurso dos admiradores, tornando-os pe saroses ou satisfeitos, qualquer symptoma de maior crise, ou de allivio curto.
