Excerpt from The Fall of Jerusalem: A Dramatic Poem

Evrry reader will at' once. Perceive from the nature of the interest, and from the language, that this drama was neither written with a view to public representation, nor can be adapted to it without being entirely remodelled and re written. The critic will draw the same con elusion from certain peculiarities in the. Com position, irreconcileable with the arrangements of the theatre; the introducing and dismissing of the subordinate characters after a single ap pearance; and yet appropriating to them some of the most poetical speeches.
