O Greece! thou sapient nurse of finer Arts!
Which to bright Science blooming Fancy bore,
Be this thy praise, that thou, and thou alonc,
In these hast led the way, in these excell'd,
Crown'd with the laurel of assenting time.

In thy full Language, speaking mighty things;
Like a clear torrent close, or else diffus'd
A broad, majestic stream, and rolling on
Through all the winding harmony of sound.

Thomson.

First American, from the second Edinburgh Edition.
