Note 11 — STAR-GAZERS
Reading edition
1807.
Or is it but unwelcome thought! that these Spectators rude, Poor in estate, of manners base, men of the multitude, Have souls which never yet have risen, and therefore prostrate lie, Not to be lifted up at once to power and majesty?
MS. letter, D. W. to Lady Beaumont, Nov. 15, 1806.
