[140] Thos. Hogg's poem of 'St. Michael's Mount' was also appropriately dedicated to him.
[TREVITHICK,]
THE ENGINEER.
'I exult,
Casting reserve away, exult to see
An intellectual mastery exercised
O'er the blind elements; a purpose given;
A perseverance fed; almost a soul
Imparted—to blind matter. I rejoice,
Measuring the force of those gigantic powers,
That, by the thinking mind have been compelled
To serve the will of feeble-bodied Man.'
Wordsworth's 'Excursion.'
