The Tragic model ranks as one of the two highest forms of composition, and, without exception, the most difficult Speaking -sometimes briefly, darkly from the depths of the agitated soul, it is less level to common apprehension than narrative poetry, or prose fiction, and it finds less favor; but it finds it with ardent and elevated minds. Whatever may have been the aspirations of our inexperienced years, on exchanging a studious retirement for the bustle of the world, we too often find ourselves beset with circumstances so adverse to abstract, or high imagi- native, efforts, that our early literary conceits disappear like morning exhalations.
