Our best impulses were stirred to the
very depth Of our Soul last evening by
the reading and lecture of Dr.. Morgan.
He gave a lecture embracing a short
history Of the Poet Laureate, the char
acter of the poetry and then read the
poetry itself. The Doctor was born to
read "Enoch Arden" As not harsh
word is found in the poem, SO not q
harsh sound fell from his lips. The
nearer could feel every impulse and
emotion Of Enoch, Philip and Annie
catching at every point the real senti-
ment. 1t is something to be appreci-
ated to hear an educated Englishman
read the poem Of Alfred Tennyson,
one Of England's poets, made inn
mortal by his writings. We never can
read such works for ourselves as it is
read for us by such a scholar as Dr.,
Morgan. 1t is repast, refreshing to.
the soul, to lay aside the duties and tolls
of life and spend the evening in hearing
this learned English Divine read dom
the rich poems ofhis countryman.
