Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Contrast: A Poem, Exhibiting a View of Religion and Learning Before and After the Messiah's Advent
The canvass glow'd, with life and beauty warm A new creation, faultless in its form, Call'd forth attention - and the Parian stone, Fraught with expression, wanted mind alone. The op'ning landscape, and the verdant bow'r, The gorgeous temple, and the stately tow'r.
