Excerpt from Cottage Lectures, or the Pilgrim's Progress Practically Explained: Designed for Cottage and Family Reading
O thou, whom, borne on fancy's eager wing, Back to the season of life's happy spring, I pleased remember, and, while memory yet Holds fast her office here, can ne'er forget; Ingenious dreamer, in whose well-told tale Sweet fiction and sweet truth alike prevail; Whose humorous vein, strong sense, and simple style, May teach the gayest, make the gravest smile; Witty, and well employed, and, like thy Lord, Speaking in parables his slighted word: I name thee not, lest so despised a name Should move a sneer at thy deserved fame.
