All were reduced to one standard, low and
mean. Limits we're set to progress, forms
prescribed which must be CONFIRMED to-
None strove for any thing new, all was
made to conform with the old. The art
was not to invent but to initiate, to copy
not to create, to receive as standards of per-
lection what were but poor attempts to rep
resent it, TO look on the starting point as the
goal. Thus all were blind worshipers of
the past; the exertions Of men were limited
to trials to equal what they ought to excel
All this is to be abolished, and genius left
as free to obey the voice of nature as on the
