C. T 274 CHATTERTON.
9. The Bcdade of Charitie : " As wroten bie the gode prieste Thomas Eowleie, 1464. " This poem, originally printed from a professed copy in Chatterton's hand- writing in the possession of JNIr. Barrett, is a kind of. Narrative phantasy, describing a pilgrim overtaken by a storm. A rich abbot passes him, and refuses him an alms ; but a poor " Limitour " friar, who has little to spare, acts a more In^otherly part.
10. The Battle of Hastings: A long rhymed descrip- tion, in tw
...o parts, of the supposed incidents of the great liattle by which Duke William became master of England. The poem purported to be a translation by Eowley of a metrical narrative by Turgot, a Saxon monk, contemporary \\'ith the Conquest. Chatterton, when liard pressed, had admitted to Mr. Barrett that the first part was his own.
These antique poems of Chatterton (and there are about twenty shorter ones in the same series) are perhaps as worthy of being read consecutively as many portions of the poetry of Byron, Shelley, or Keats.
