322 ページ - O'er my dim eyes a darkness hung ; My ears with hollow murmurs rung. In dewy damps my limbs were chill'd ; My blood with gentle horrors thrill'd ; My feeble pulse forgot to play ; I fainted, sunk, and died away.

89 ページ - Choose a just style. Be grave without constraint, Great without pride, and lovely without paint. Write what your reader may be pleased to hear, And for the measure have a careful ear ; On easy numbers fix your happy choice ; Of jarring sounds avoid the odious noise ; The fullest verse, and the most labored sense, Displease us if the ear once take offence.

To reason's yoke she quickly will incline, Which, far from hurting, renders her divine; But if neglected, will as easily stray, And master reason, which she should obey. Love reason then; and let whate'er you write Borrow from her its beauty, force, and light.

107 ページ - Or falls asleep, or censures all you write. The secret is, attention first to gain ; To move our minds, and then to entertain ; That from the very opening of the scenes, The first may show us what the author means. I'm tired to see an actor on the stage, That knows not whether he's to laugh or rage ; Who, an intrigue unravelling in vain, Instead of pleasing, keeps my mind in pain.
