Now waxing Phœbe filled her wained horns.—Wakefield.
[63] Here is a remarkably fine effect of versification. The poet rises with his subject, and the correspondent periods seem to flow more copious and majestic with the grandeur and sublimity of the theme.—Bowles.
[64] This fine expression is borrowed from Dryden's Ode on Mrs. Killegrew:
Thou wilt have time enough for hymns divine,
Since heaven's eternal year is thine.—Wakefield.
[65] Isaiah li. 6, and chap. liv. 10.—Pope. "The heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, but my salvation shall be for ever.—For the mountains shall depart, and the hills shall be removed, but my kindness shall not depart from thee."
