is from he pen of DR.. Logan, an eminent
divine & tiitorian of Scotland. Coleridge,
himieif mufe ofno humble fame, has pro.
nounced II the mof exquifite perform
ance in our language. IT is in the
f"eetelt manner of Burn but it's exc
cuiion Is even hyperion TO the moft AFFECT.
ing pieces of that heaven-taught bard.
The fecond and the fourth ftanzss are
full of beauty. The quick tranfition in
the iecopd. from the wedding-day to the
lovers grave, is not more unexpected than
touching. Not word in the Engliih
language could have been more haop;iy
ieletted, than the epithet welded" in The
nest to the iaft line.-The whole fons diff.
plays no little art 10 initiating the manner
of the drama, and keeping our curoiity

the real tate the lover for The frR tine
