Spenser imitated the Italian writers, and Milton improved on them ; but this school expired soon after the Restoration, and a new one arose on the French model, which has subsisted ever since.
27 When Latium had her lofty spirit lost, They sought, oh Albion ! next, thy sea-encircled coast.
III. 1 [8].
Far from the sun and summer-gale, In thy green lap was Nature's Darling (s) laid, What time, where lucid Avon stray'd, To him the mighty Mother did unveil Her awful face: The dauntless Child Stret...ch'd forth his little arms, and smil'd.
[8] An ingenious person (as Mr. Mason tells us) who sent Mr. Gray his remarks anonymously on this and the following Ode soon after they were published, gives this stanza and the following a very just and well-expressed eulogy: " A Poet is perhaps never more conciliating " than when he praises favourite predecessors in his art. Milton is " not more the pride than Shakespeare the love of their country: It is " therefore equally judicious to diffuse a tenderness and a grace through " the praise of Shakespeare, as to extol in a strain more elevated and " sonorous the boundless soarings of Milton's epic imagination.
