Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Haydn, and Other Poems
And if we turn from whole productions to Short statements, we discover here, too, that the world re members best those in the forms of poetry, - the proverbs, precepts, and quotations indicating illustra tions from analogy. In these sometimes both objects, in which there are Similar Operations, are expressed 3 as, for example, Anger, like rain, breaks itself on what it falls upon. Sometimes one Object only is expressed with clearness, Gratitude is the memory Of the heart. And sometimes neither is expressed a law alone is stated, which suggests, at once, a vast variety of Objects to which it may be applied, and in which operations are analogous, With what measure ye mete, it Shall be measured to you again.
