PREFACE.
*' IT is with great diffidence that the author j
fubmiti the following poems to the pub ic eye. ]
I’ht w^rld is a.-e-udy f> amply tlo ktd with
bad poetry,that a writer (hould be cautious'
how ne increafes the heap : and areal patriot
ought to be tenderly jealous, even of the Jitter
J ary reputation of his countiy.*’
Many of the original pieces here prefented
I to the public were written at an early period of
j He — not a few w.re onty momentary tffuiions,
j and none of them were comp.)fed with much
j premeditation. But as nothing he can now
offer will make them better, he defife* from
any farther apology, and quietly refigns them
to their fate.
u 1 be iprcimens from Oflian, a'e taken from
a work murfe leiturely compofed and therefore,
if bad, h ive lef» to plead in their excufe. Mac.
pherfon’s profe trandation of thefe. poems fell
into the author’s hands as early as the year
1770, when they were but little known in this
count-y, they pleaied him, and he then attem
1 pted to turn a few paffages int-> heroic virfe.—
j The work was amufing, and he has from rime
i to time continued it. The greater part nf thele
poems are now completed ; and on the favor
able re- eption of the fpecimens will depend the
i fu ure publication of the whole verfion.
“ Shcu’d he meet with the encouragement
j which every author wifh s, he purp f_* to give
j hi3 verlion to the public it two Otfavo volumes
1 with explanatory noies which he has already
! prepared, and alfo ro offer fome arguments ip.
| addition to ihofe urged by Mr. MaCphcrfon,
Dr. Bl iir, and others, in favor of the au hen
tici y of Oflian’s poems, ag tiufl the opinion of
Dr. Johnfon and his party.”
