Pij Thomas Campbell
1’ 1! h:cl the I yicintli in blow,
I’ il teach my grotto green to
be,
And sing my true-love, all below
The holly bow’r and it yrtie
tree.
There all his wild-wood scents to
bring,
The sweet south wind shall
wander by.
And with the music of his wing,
Delight my rustling canopy.
Come to my close and clustering
bow’r,
Thou spirit of a milder clitre,
‘-Vi.slt wit It the dews of fruit and
/ wer,
Os ntain heath and moory
Hi) me.
‘* r: Ti all thv rural echoes como,
veet comrade of the rosy da';,
1 r altii g the wild-bee’s gentle
hum,
Or Cuckotv’s plaintire rounde
by-
Where’er thy morning breath has
pia M,
Whatever isles of ocean fault'd
Come to my blossom-woven shade,
Thou waitcl’ruig winU of fairy
land-
For sure front some enchanted isle,
Where heav’n and love their
sabbath hold.
Where pure and happy spirits
smile
Os beauty’s fairest, brightest
mould.
Front some green Eden of the
deep,
Where pleasure’s sigh alone is
heav’d,
Where tears of rapture lovers
weep,
Endeared, undoubting, unde
ceiv’d.
From someLweet paradise afar,
Thv nnffytj/K-Miders. distant, I
lost;
Where nature lights her leading
star*
.And love is never,nevtjr v cross’d.
Oh gentle gale of Eden bow’rs.
If bark thy rosy feet should
roam,
1 o revel with the cloudless hours,
In nature’s more propitious home.
Name to thy lov’d elysian groves,
f liar o’er enchanted spirits twine,
A fairct form than clientb loves,
And let the name be Caroline.

Oj thejini Language.
Language, as involving so
many combinations, is the
molt difficult of all inventions;
being the initrument of hu
man conversation, it is the molt
ufeful.
Letters, or written language
is the next in dignity and use ;
being the grand key to know
ledge, aits, and sciences.
Whether these two are of
human, or as fome have lup
poled, of divine origin, can.,
not be ealily afeertained. The
com. lex it y of their conQruc
tion and it flexion, the variety
ol compound, as well as (im
p!e ideas which they exprels j
the wonderful reach diiplayed
in the invention of letters, a
bout two dor., nos which, by
different ari angeinents, ex
preis the whole of human thot
which is boundless and infinite
ali tend to show both the one
and the other to huve been the
“full of much forethought and
moll profound icilection.
f human invention, it
** required tiitie, e.\pe r
rience and long investigation
to have discovered and im
proved them. The firft nations
it is fnnpoled, were mute, or
pxpreffid theunfeives in dumb
(hew: Natural ligus, looks,
and gefliculations, mu ft have
(Applied the place of words and
artificial expression ; till by
degrees, finding the tedious
nefs and impelfetlion of this
mode of mtercourfe, men
would of neceflity and by cooi
paft, have recourle fit ft to o.
ra! or spoken language ; then
to figuiesand hieroglyphicks,
and Lilly, to letters or written
language.
These, indeed, mull have;
been previous to all other
inventions or improvements ;
whatever j as without them ;
no human communication can >
properly take place, no in.
firuCtion or information of j
nv kind. They muff, therefore j
have paved the way not only I
to the ufeful and convenient
arts, hut to hu-man inteicouiTe
m general, polity, commerce,
and (ciences of every fort.
Upon examining the struc
ture of language, we difeover
a very great analogy betwixt
all thole of remote origin.
Nature operates here moftlv
in the fame way in all the hu
man race. The words of any
or iginal language mull be few,
as men’s ideas in an early (late
are hut few. And thele words
and are very much
of the metaphorical kind lor the
fame realon, to wu, the learnt
riels of language.
As in this lUte mm’s imagi
nations are peculiarly attive,
they will natural) in their ex
prellions, have recourle to thole
external objects, that are dai'y
before their eyes 6c strike them
molt forcibly. In warm coun
tries their wih be frequent a!l c>-
cits to heat, in cold, to frolt,
lm>w, & hail, m mud to green
fields, foltbieezes, and purling
Streams.
Ifgicatnefs offizeis spoken
of, the African wnl allude to j
the elephaut, and the Grcenlan- j
der to the whale j if beauty is
the lubjett, the former, will al
lude to the fun, the iatier, moll
probably, to the Iplenuour of
ice or of {now.
ihe Hehiew and Celtick
languages arc certainly, both
of very remote origin. Ac
cordingly their idiom, being
unpolilhed and scanty, is high
ly figura iveand metaphorical;
and poffi-ffes that aiduur and
concilenels so peculiar to moll
primitive tongue*. The Cel
tick, fuppoled older than the
Greek, was the ancient lan
guage of Gaul, Spam, and the
British if lands. The Hebrew,
or its dialects, prevail to this
day over Arabia, Perlia, and a
great part of India, and the
northern parts of Africa.
The High Dutch and Sola
voman aie likewtfe of great
antiquity ; though it is ex.
tremely difficult to afeertain
their origin. Perhapsthey may
be deemed a.kin to the Celtick
as the Latin to the Greek,
with a mixture of Tulcan.
Their genius, however, is
harfhand rude, though pol.
felled of llrength ; their man
ner cold and tedious.
The Latin and Greek I
reckon of nearly the lame an
tiquity, the latter perhaps
so mew hat older. They are
iikewile related in form and
idiom, and bear a llrong re
semblance to the country in
which they were pioduced.
Befices their own imruifick &
f.ipei lative value, they become
of peculiar consequence, as
they enter mote or lels iiuo
the composition of tnoft Lu
rooean tongues.
‘i flialloniy just further ob
serve, that, as all original lan
guages seem one way or oti.er
interwoven or connefited to.
gether, it is mod probable that
they have sprung from one
ft ill more oi igi.ial, the loun
tain-head of the left. Perhaps
the Hebrew, Chaldaick, or A
rahick, bids the latrell lor this |
honour ; yet there is no cer
tainty that these were either
spoken at the building of Ba
bel or were only corruptions
oi a more genera! one that took
place befoie the confulion ol
longues, and the consequent
dilperfion of mankind.
