COMPILED BY THE LATE

REV. THOMAS JANES,

"All men agree, that licentious Poems do of all writings soonest cor-
"rupt the heart: and why should we not be as universally persuaded,
"that the grave and serious performances of such as write in the
"most engaging manner, by a kind of divine impulse, must be the
"most effectual persuasives to goodness?"-TATLER.
