"^ Blair's better manner is seen in the lines which follow : — "Son of the morning, whither art thou gone? Where hast thou hid thy many-spangled head, And the majestic menace of thine eyes, Felt from afar. " But best of all that he wrote is the close of The Grave, in which beauty of expression finely responds to beauty of thought : — '"Tis but a night, a long and moonless night, We make the grave our bed, and then are gone. Thus at the shut of even the weary bird Leaves the wide air and, in som...e lonely brake. Cowers down and dozes till the dawn of day. Then claps his well-fledged wings and bears away. " The man who felt thus and wrote thus was, whatever his limits, a true poet. All the evidence points to the conclusion that his limits were narrow . There is no trace of varied powers in Blair; but there is every- where a guarantee that whatever else he might have done with a longer life, he would have done nothing weak.
Several of these men then show that they possess a true poetic gift ; and in the case of Thomson the gift is a high one.
