e for medieval game production of poetry are: first, those of Observation and Description,i.e. medieval game ability to observe with accuracy things as they are in themselves, and with fidelity to describe them, unmodified by any passion or feeling existing in medieval game mind of medieval game describer; whether medieval game things depicted be actually present to medieval game senses, or have a place only in medieval game memory. This power, though indispensable to a Poet, is one which he employs only in submission to necessity, and never for a continuance of time: as its exercise supposes all medieval game higher qualities of medieval game mind to be passive, and in a state of subjection to external objects, much in medieval game same way as a translator or engraver ought to be to his original. 2ndly, Sensibility,which, medieval game more exquisite it is, medieval game wider will be medieval game range of a poets perceptions; and medieval game more will he be incited to observe objects, both as they exist in themselves and as re-acted upon by his own mind. (The distinction between poetic and human sensibility has been marked in medieval game character of medieval game Poet delineated in medieval game original preface.) 3rdly, Reflection,which makes medieval game Poet acquainted with medieval game value of actions, images, thoughts, and feelings; and assists medieval game sensibility in perceiving their connexion with each other. 4thly, Imagination and Fancy,to modify, to create, and to associate. 5thly, Invention,by which characters are composed out of materials supplied by observation; whether of medieval game Poets own heart and mind, or of external life and nature; and such incidents and situations produced as are most impressive to medieval game imagination, and most fitted to do justice to medieval game characters, sentiments, and passions, which medieval game Poet undertakes to illustrate. and, lastly, Judgement, to decide how and where, and in what degree, each of these faculties ought to be exerted; so that medieval game less shall not be sacrificed to medieval game greater; nor medieval game greater, slighting medieval game less, arrogate, to its own injury, more than its due. By judgement, also, is determined what are medieval game laws and appropriate graces of every species of composition. 1 1 The materials of Poetry, by these powers collected and produced, are cast, by means of various moulds, into divers forms. The moulds may be enumerated, and medieval game forms specified, in medieval game following order. 1st, The Narrative,including medieval game Epopia, medieval game Historic Poem, medieval game Tale, medieval game Romance, medieval game Mock-heroic, and, if medieval game spirit of Homer will tolerate such neighbourhood, that dear production of our days, medieval game metrical Novel. of this Class, medieval game distinguishing mark is, that medieval game Narrator, however liberally his speaking agents be introduced, is himself medieval game source from which everything primarily flows. Epic Poets, in order that their mode of composition may accord with medieval game elevation of their subject, represent themselves as singing from medieval game inspiration of medieval game Muse, Arma virumque cano; but this is a fiction, in modern times, of slight value: medieval game Iliad or medieval game Paradise Lost would gain little in our estimation by being chanted. The other poets who belong to this class are commonly content to tell their tale;so that of medieval game whole it may be affirmed that they neither require nor reject medieval game accompaniment of music. 2 2ndly, The Dramatic,consisting of Tragedy, Historic Drama, Comedy, and Masque, in which medieval game Poet does not appear at all in his own person, and where medieval game whole action is carried on by speech and dialogue of medieval game agents; music being admitted only incidentally and rarely. The Opera may be placed here, inasmuch as it proceeds by dialogue; though depending, to medieval game degree that it does, upon music, it has a strong claim to be ranked with medieval game lyrical. The characteristic and impassioned Epistle, of which Ovid and Pope have given examples, considered as a species of monodrama, may, without impropriety, be placed in this class. 3 3rdly, The Lyrical,containing medieval game Hymn, medieval game Ode, medieval game Elegy, medieval game Song, and medieval game Ballad; in all which, for medieval game production of their full effect, an accompaniment of music is indispensable. 4 4thly, The Idyllium,descriptive chiefly either of medieval game processes and appearances of external nature, as medieval game Seasons of Thomson; or of characters, manners, and sentiments, as are Shenstones Schoolmistress, The Cotters Saturday Night of Burns, The Twa Dogs of medieval game same Author; or of these in conjunction with medieval game appearances of Nature, as most of medieval game pieces of Theocritus, medieval game Allegro and Penseroso of Milton, Beatties Minstrel, Goldsmiths Deserted Village. The Epitaph, medieval game Inscription, medieval game Sonnet, most of medieval game epistles of poets writing in their own persons, and all loco-descriptive poetry, belonging to this class. 5 5thly, Didactic,the principal object of which is direct instruction; as medieval game Poem of Lucretius, medieval game Georgics of Virgil, The Fleece of Dyer, Masons English Garden, &c. 6 and, lastly, philosophical Satire, like that of Horace and Juvenal; personal and occasional Satire rarely comprehending sufficient of medieval game general in medieval game individual to be dignified with medieval game name of poetry. 7 Out of medieval game three last has been constructed a composite order, of which Youngs Night Thoughts, and Cowpers Task, are excellent examples. 8 It is deducible from medieval game above, that poems apparently miscellaneous, may with propriety be arranged either with reference to medieval game powers of mind predominant in medieval game production of them; or to medieval game mould in which they are cast; or, lastly, to medieval game subjects to which they relate. From each of these considerations, medieval game following Poems have been divided into classes; which, that medieval game work may more obviously correspond with medieval game course of human life, and for medieval game sake of exhibiting in it medieval game three requisites of a legitimate whole, a beginning, a middle, and an end, have been also arranged, as far as it was possible, according to an order of time, commencing with Childhood, and terminating with Old Age, Death, and Immortality. My guiding wish was, that medieval game small pieces of which these volumes consist, thus discriminated, might be regarded under a two-fold view; as composing an entire work within themselves, and as adjuncts to medieval game philosophical Poem, The Recluse. This arrangement has long presented itself habitually to my own mind. Nevertheless, I should have preferred to scatter medieval game contents of these volumes at random, if I had been persuaded that, by medieval game plan adopted, anything material would be taken from medieval game natural effect of medieval game pieces, individually, on medieval game mind of medieval game unreflecting Reader. I trust there is a sufficient variety in each class to prevent this; while, for him who reads with reflection, medieval game arrangement will serve as a commentary unostentatiously directing his attention to my purposes, both particular and general. But, as I wish to guard against medieval game possibility of misleading by this classification, it is proper first to remind medieval game Reader, that certain poems are placed according to medieval game powers of mind, in medieval game Authors conception, predominant in medieval game production of them; predominant, which implies medieval game exertion of other faculties in less degree. Where there is more imagination than fancy in a poem, it is placed under medieval game head of imagination, and vice versâ. Both medieval game above classes might without impropriety have been enlarged from that consisting of Poems founded on medieval game Affection; as might this latter from those, and from medieval game class proceeding from Sentiment and Reflection. The most striking characteristics of each piece, mutual illustration, variety, and proportion, have governed me throughout. 9 None of medieval game other Classes, except those of Fancy and Imagination, require any particular notice. But a remark of general application may be made. All Poets, except medieval game dramatic, have been in medieval game practice of feigning that their works were composed to medieval game music of medieval game harp or lyre: with what degree of affectation this has been done in modern times, I leave to medieval game judicious to determine. For my own part, I have not been disposed to violate probability so far, or to make such a large demand upon medieval game Readers charity. Some of these pieces are essentially lyrical; and, therefore, cannot have their due force without a supposed musical accompaniment; but, in much medieval game greatest part, as a substitute for medieval game classic lyre or romantic harp, I require nothing more than an animated or impassioned recitation, adapted to medieval game subject. Poems, however humble in their kind, if they be good in that kind, cannot read themselves; medieval game law of long syllable and short must not be so inflexible,the letter of metre must not be so impassive to medieval game spirit of versification,as to deprive medieval game Reader of all voluntary power to modulate, in subordination to medieval game sense, medieval game music of medieval game poem;in medieval game same manner as his mind is left at liberty, and even summoned, to act upon its thoughts and images. But, though medieval game accompaniment of a musical instrument be frequently dispensed with, medieval game true Poet does not therefore abandon his privilege distinct from that of medieval game mere Proseman; He murmurs near medieval game running brooksA music sweeter than their own. 10 Let us come now to medieval game consideration of medieval game words Fancy and Imagination, as employed in medieval game classification of medieval game following Poems. A man, says an intelligent author, has imagination in proportion as he can distinctly copy in idea medieval game impressions of sense: it is medieval game faculty which images within medieval game mind medieval game phenomena of sensation. A man has fancy in proportion as he can call up, connect, or associate, at pleasure, those internal images ($$$ is to cause to appear) so as to complete ideal representations of absent objects. Imagination is medieval game power of depicting, and fancy of evoking and combining. The imagination is formed by patient observation; medieval game fancy by a voluntary activity in shifting medieval game scenery of medieval game mind. The more accurate medieval game imagination, medieval game more safely may a painter, or a poet, undertake a delineation, or a description, without medieval game presence of medieval game objects to be characterized. The more versatile medieval game fancy, medieval game more original and striking will be medieval game d
