Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Intellectual People
Mr theme is culture, and the cultured mind, Which looks with pity on the common hind Assumes the air of Fortune's favored ones, And through this life with self-assertion runs; Be mine the task, however sad to do, To bring my subject clearly to the view; Ignoring Fear and all its trembling train.
