There is no attitudinizing in his poems, no pretence to unreal sentiment. He was a poet — "Whose songs gushed from his heart, As drops from the clouds of summer, Or tears from the eyeUds start. " He felt deeply, and then poured forth his song because ' he could not otherwise find peace. He could not endure a...ffectation, rant, hypocrisy. At heart devout before the great Author and Preserver of all things, he yet rebelled against some of the hard features religion had assumed. In his "Epistle to a Young Friend, " his real feelings are indicated : — _, " The great Creator to revere, Must sure become the creature ; But still the preaching cant forbear, And ev'n the rigid feature : Yet ne'er with wits profane to range, Be complaisance extended ; An Atheist's laugh's a poor exchange For Deity offended.
