Pàgina 235 - Now the bright morning star, day's harbinger, Comes dancing from the east, and leads with her The flowery May, who from her green lap throws The yellow cowslip, and the pale primrose. Hail bounteous May that dost inspire Mirth and youth, and warm desire; Woods and groves are of thy dressing, Hill and dale doth boast thy blessing. Thus we salute thee with our early song, And welcome thee, and wish thee long.

Pàgina 256 - By supposition, as place is introduced, time may be extended; the time required by the fable elapses for the most part between the acts; for, of so much of the action as is represented, the real and poetical duration is the same.
Pàgina 234 - May never was the month of love For May is full of flowers, But rather April, wet by kind, For love is full of showers.
Pàgina 256 - Corneille, they have very generally received, by discovering that they have given more trouble to the poet than pleasure to the auditor. The necessity of observing the unities of time and place arises from the supposed necessity of making the drama credible.
Pàgina 185 - Lives and Exploits of Banditti and Robbers in all Parts of the World. By MACFARLANE.
Pàgina 257 - The delight of tragedy proceeds from our consciousness of fiction; if we thought murders and treasons real they would please no more. 11 Imitations produce pain or pleasure not because they are mistaken for realities, but because they bring realities to mind.
