Excerpt from Moscow; Or Triumphant Self-Devotion: A Poem, in Three Cantos, With Notes, Historical, Philosophical, and Critical
The work which is here laid before thee, was a hasty production, as all works, undertaken at the spur of the moment, and to catch the interest of transient events, must needs be. - It claims no higher distinction, than such productions, as Dryden's Annus Mirablis, and Addison's Campaign - and with these, the Author Hatters himself, it need not very much fear a comparison. Perhaps the Reviewers (if these sages deign to notice it) may think differently. Let them. The Author will still enjoy his own opinion.
