— in the old tradition. In Oxford itself poetry, and poetical criticism as we should now understand that term, were two hundred years ago at a low ebb. There was no nest of singing- birds here then such as there had been earlier, and was to be again more than once later. Among the Oxford versifiers of Queen Anne's reign no one attained immor- tality ; the thin but delicate piping of Tickell, a poet best remembered now as Addison's devoted pupil and panegyrist, is the only note that remains audi...ble now. He was deputy-professor of Poetry during the third year of the existence of the Chair, when Trapp, according to the easy-going fashion of those days, had gone off to Ireland as chaplain to the Irish Lord Chancellor. Henry Felton of Edmund HaU might perhaps be still remembered as a poet if he had written many things hke these two melodious stanzas, ' occasion'd by a Ladies making a copy of Verses : ' In Antient Greece when Sappho sung And touch'd with matchless Art the Lyre, ApoUo's Hand her Musick strung And all Parnassus form'd the Quire.
