SU Facing to the northern clime, Shrice he tracə the Runic rhyme; Thrice pronounc'd in accents , dréad 3 The thrilling verse that uakes the deal! Published as the Act directs 15 Aug! 1776 i W HEN I present the Public with an elegant edition of “ Poems by Mr. Gray” at a very moderate price, I perform an action which I am confident would have been highly grateful to the author had he been living, as every writer naturally wishes to have his works handsomely printed and universally read.. I flatter myself there is no impropriety in particularly inscribing these poems to a gentleman who has judgement to distinguish, and taste to relish fine verses, and who possesses a heart capable of many virtues. |
