17. Do you find the genius of Virgil more inclined to draw illustrations and figures of speech from works of nature or art; more from animate, or inanimate, nature; more from painting, or sculpture; from architecture, or scenery? Compare him, in any of these points, with the Greek poets; and mention any striking instances which may occur to you.

I.

Subject for Latin Hexameters.

In the style of Virgil's Eclogues.

"In obitum Gualteri Scott, Poetæ, Fabularum Conditoris, Ruris amantissimi."

II.

Greek Iambic Verse.

"But if thou goest, I follow". "Peace!" he said,

She looked upon him and was calmed and cheered;
The ghastly colour from his lips had fled;

In his deportment, shape, and mien, appeared
Elysian beauty, melancholy grace,

Brought from a pensive though a happy place.

He spake of love, such love as Spirits feel
In worlds whose course is equable and pure;
No fears to beat away—no strife to heal—
The past unsighed for, and the future sure;
Spake of heroic arts in graver mood
Revived, with finer harmony pursued ;

Of all that is most beauteous-imaged there
In happier beauty; more pellucid streams,
An ampler ether, a diviner air,

And fields invested with purpureal gleams;

Climes which the sun, who sheds the brightest day Earth knows, is all unworthy to survey.

Yet there the Soul shall enter which hath earned That privilege by virtue.
