Bristol, 1796. ENGLISH ECLOGUES [The first three of the following Eclogues were published in Poems, vol. ii, 1799, Eclogue II under the title of ' The Funeral '. Eclogue IV was published in The Edinburgh Anmud Register, 1808.] The following Eclogues, I believe, bear no resemblance to any poems in our lan- guage. This species of composition has • become popular in Germany, and I was induced to attempt it by what was told me of the German Idylls by my friend Mr. William Taylor of Norwich, So far,... there- fore, these pieces may be deemed imitations, though I am not acquainted with the German language at present, and have never seen any translations or specimens in this kind. With bad Eclogues I am sufficiently acquainted, from Tityrus and Corydon down to our English Strephons and Thir- sisses. Nokindof poetry can boast of more illustrious names, or is more distinguished by the servile dulness of imitated nonsense. Pastoral writers, ' more silly than their sheep,' have, like their sheep, gone on in the same track one after another.
