Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Elegiac Poem, to the Memory of the Rev. Isaac Watts, D.D: Who Departed This Life November 25, 1748, in the 75th Year of His Age
Watts, in the ample Regions of thy Soul Innumerable Stores of science lay; Like Gold or Gems, that, rip'ning at the Feet Of the Peruvian Hills, imbibe the Sun, And emulate his everlafiing Fires Or like the Spices in the Eafi'em Groves That load with Fragrance ev'ry palling Gale: Old Ocean hails the Blefiing, 'and conveys O'er his broad Wave the aromatic Joy.
