•,• This i» the only complete edition of Cowper 
which has ever been given to the world. The early 
Poems, addressed by Cowper to his cousin, Theodora 
Cowper, to whom he was attached, are exclusively 
copyright, and consequently cannot appear in any 
other edition. It contains all the letters which had 
been previously published, examined with the ori- 
ginals, and passages restored, that either from error 
in judgment, or reasons connected with individuals 
then living, were left out by Hayley, many of which 
passages are important, and liiglily illustrative of the 
mind of Cowper. It comprehends, in addition, up- 
wards of One hundred and twenty letters never 
before printed in any shape, and of the most interest- 
ing description. In the Life of the Poet, Dr. Southey 
has introduced much of ilie Literary History of Eng- 
land during half a century, with Biographical Sketches 
of many of his contemporaries. 
" Of Cowper how shall I cypress myself in adequate 
terms of admiration? The purity of his principles, 
the tenderness of his heart, his unaffected and zealous 
piety, his warmth of devotion, the delicacy and play- 
fulness of his wit, and the singular felicity of his dic- 
tion, all conspire by turns 
' To win the wisest, warm the coldest heart.' 
Cowper is the poet of a well-educated and well-prin- 
cipled Englishman. ' Home, sweet Home' is the 
scene — limited as it may be imagined— in which he 
contrives lo concentrate a thousand beauties, which 
Gibers have scattered tar and wide upon objects ol less 
interest and attraction. His pictures are, if I may so 
speak, conceived with all the tenderness of Rattaclle, 
and executed with all the finish and sharpness of Teniers. 
No man, in such few words, tells his tale, or describes 
his scene so forcibly and so justly. The popularity of 
Cowper gains strength as it gains age: and, after all, 
he is the poet of our study, our cabinet, and our 
alcove." — Dibdin. 
" There is not in (he whole compass of English 
literature, a single writer, whose works, including his 
admirable Correspondence, deserve to be so generally 
infused (if we may be permitted the expression) into 
society, as those of Cowper." — Atlas. 
''CoVVPEK IS BY FAR THE MOST DELIGHTFUl, 
LETTER-WRITER IN THE ENGLISH LANGtIAGR.'' — 
Quarterly Review. 
" The Letters of Mr. Cowper are the finest speci- 
mens of the epistolary style in our language. To an 
air of inimitable ease they unite a high degree of cor- 
rectness, such as could resultonly from the clearest in- 
tellect, combined witli the most finished taste. There 
is scarcely a single word capable of being exchanged 
for a better, and of literary errors there are none. I have 
perused them with great admiration and delight." — 
Rtbert Hall. 
" The study of Cowper's prose will be found highly 
useful in forming the taste of young people." — Ibid. 
" All the writings of Cowper bear the stamp of ori- 
ginal genius, and remind us of the merits that have 
secured immortality to Shakspeare. It is impossible to 
read his productions without being delighted with his 
force, his brilliancy, and his variety." — Edinb. Review.
