DONCASTRIANA. THE RIVER DON.
Rivers from bubbling springs Have rise at first; and great from abject things. MIDDLETON.
MORAL INTEREST OF TOPOGRAPHICAL WORKS. LOCAL ATTACHMENT.
Let none our Author rudely blame Who from the story has thus long digrest; But for his righteous pains may his fair fame For ever travel, whilst his ashes rest. SIR WILLILAM DAVENANT.
THE AUTHOR QUESTIONS THE PROPRIETY OF PERSONIFYING CIRCUMSTANCE, DENIES THE UNITY AND INDIVISIBILITY OF THE PUBLIC, AND MAY EVEN BE SUSPECTED OF DOUBTING ITS OMNISCIENCE AND ITS INFALLIBILITY.
Ha forse Testa la plebe, ove si chiuda in vece Di senno, altro che nebbia? o forma voce Chi sta più saggia, che un bebù d'armento? CHIABRERA.
DONCASTRIANA. POTTERIC CARR. SOMETHING CONCERNING THE MEANS OF EMPLOYING THE POOR, AND BETTERING THEIR CONDITION.

REMARKS ON AN OPINION OF MR. CRABBE'S. TOPOGRAPHICAL POETRY. DRAYTON.
Do, pious marble, let thy readers know What they and what their children owe To Drayton's name, whose sacred dust We recommend unto thy trust. Protect his memory, and preserve his story; Remain a lasting monument of his glory; And when thy ruins shall disclaim To be the treasurer of his name, His name that cannot fade shall be An everlasting monument to thee. EPITAPH IN WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
