And this distinction seems to me to pervade the compositions of all secondary poets. Tlie image itself is not present to them; but the words of some predecessor. Dugald Stewart speaks of a memory of words; and not of things.
The dealer in words is a workman of technical compositions. Such compositions, may dazzle ; but they never cause simple and profound impres- sions.
Men of memory are ductile and ready : they catch all cliaracters, but are possessed by none. They never draw from nature : the...y have no self-motion ; but always derive their impulse from otiicrs.
