The Dexterity of Poetry 20:00With the young of both sexes, Poetry is, like love, a passion;but,for muchthe greater part of those who have been pround of its power over their minds ,a necessity soon arises of breaking the pleasing bondage;or it relaxes of itself;__the thoughts being occupied in domestic cares, or the time engrossed by business.Poetry then becomes only an occasional recreation ;while to thosewhose existence passes away in a course of fashionable pleasure,it is a species of luxurious amusement.In middle and declining age ,a scattered number of serious persons resort to poetry, as to religion, for a protection against the pressure of trivialemployments, and as a consolation for the afflictions of life.And, lastly ,there are many, who, having been enamoured of this art intheir youth ,have found leisure ,after youth was spent, tocultivate general literature;in which poetry has continued to be comprehended as a study. 诗歌之灵性对青年男女来说，诗歌如同爱情一样，是一种激情。不过，即使是为诗歌动人心弦的力量萦绕心灵而骄傲的人，也很快就必需挣脱诗歌那令人愉悦的束缚；或者这种束缚会自然而然地松懈，因为家务占据了头脑，事业耗尽了时间。如此一来, 诗歌就只是偶尔的消遣了。对那些一生都在追求时髦的人来说，诗歌是一种奢侈的娱乐。而少数中老年人则借助于诗歌――就像求助于宗教一样――来缓解琐事带来的压力和抚平生活中的创伤。最后，还有许多自年轻时就迷上了诗歌艺术的爱好者，尽管已不再年轻，他们有了追求文学的闲暇，这时，诗歌被当成了一门学问。
