Poems on Various Subjects (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from Poems on Various Subjects

At this enlightened period, when Britain tan boast of a Cowper, a Roscoe, a Rogers, a Pindar, a Hayley, and a Mrs. Smith, whose works are in such high estimation, and known to every lover of Poetry, it is with the greatest diffidence the Author of the following trifles submits this volume to a numerous and respectable body of Subscribers, whose friendship has induced them to bestow on him praise for talents he cannot boast of; and on their account he ventures his feeble bark along the friendly coast, not daring, nor wishing, to launch into that dangerous sea

Where fame is seldom won - and won, soon lost.
