Excerpt from The Minstrel, or the Progress of Genius: In Two Books; With Some Other Poems
I have endeavour'ed to imitate spenser in the mea~ sure of his verse, and in the harmony, simplicity, and variety, of his composition. Antique expressions I have avoided; admitting, however, some old words, where they seemed to suit the subject: but I hope none will be found that are now obsolete, or in any degree not intelligible to a reader of English poetry.

Excerpt from The Minstrel, or the Progress of Genius: In Two Books; With Some Other Poems
The design was, to trace the progress of al'oetical Genius, born in a rude age, from the first dawning of fancy and reason, till that period at which he may be supposed capable of appearing in the world as A min sirel, that is, as an itinerant Poet and Musician; a character which, according to the notions of our forefathers, was not only respectable, but sacred.
