Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Webster's First Bunker-Hill Oration

It is interesting and profitable to compare the poetry of oratory with the oratory of poetry. Such a study reveals the kinship of poet and orator, that in the infancy of literary art the two are one in virtue of the shaping and transforming power of imagination, the vision and the faculty divine which protests against the unreality of a life in which the senses are supreme.
