Excerpt from New Translation With Notes, of the Third Satire of Juvenal: To Which Are Added, Miscellaneous Poems, Original and Translated

Nor {hould it be a fubject of any furprife, that our country has rifen to no great eminence in poetry the. Vaft field for productive indufiry which 18 open to the great body of the community, prevents much attention even to the moft ufeful learning; no wonder therefore that the ornamental parts of literature are neglected. The grandeur of all the natural objects which meet the eye in our country is certainly favourable to the poetic emotions of an ardent mind; and no doubt, had the indications of poetic genius, which mutt have appeared on various occafions among us, met with as generous encouragement as has been befiowed upon the genius for painting which fome of our country men have difplayed, America would have been as much diftinguiihed by the eminence of her poets as of her painters.
