Excerpt from Prospectus of the Port Folio, 1809, Vol. 1: A Monthly Miscellany
Prom Kindness courts what Candour might refuse I No, - t'rom her soul, though rising to her eye What times remote, and realms around supply, She hails, with honest pride, her Country's claim, And calls on Taste to ratify her Fame.
