the demi* of Alexander Pope; and in 1778 that of Voltaire, two emi-
tient poets, but very different from each other in many respects;
Vol-
taire had perhaps more genius, Pope, certainly, more taste ; both
presessed a perfect knowledge of the Tersificati,m of their respective
langu ge, but I've is more, harmonious, and Voltaire more original ;
this scud's at all religious tenets, and was bitterly pointed avainst the
-very one in which he had been educated ; Pope was a latitudinarian
it is t tie, but admitted respectfully all religious persuasions. They
lived cutemporary; both had a severe turn of mind, and were farces
ticall v inclined, hut the morals of the English poet will always secure
to hi :1 the admiration of Europe, whilst the other will lot g be rtmens-
bete I as a mischief maker, and one of the causes that have brought
the horrors of die French revolution, and all the conseqnences of it.
