Excerpt from The Works, in Verse and Prose, of William Shenstone, Esq., Vol. 1 of 3: With Decorations Great part of the poetical works of Mr. Shenstone, particularly his Elegies and Paftorals, are (as he himfelf exprell'es it) The exac't tranfcripts of the fituation of his own mind and abound in fi'equent allufions to his own place, the beautiful feche of his retirement from the World.
