" There has been no modern poem in the English language, of the class to which the ' Course 

 of Time' belongs, since Milton wrote, that can be compared to it. In the present instance the

 have been employed in giving expression to the sublimity of the language, by equally exquisite 

 illustrations, all of which are of the highest class." — Bell's Messenger.
