Excerpt from The Biblical Repertory and Theological Review, Vol. 2: July 1830 We have received a copy of the first volume, which is a duo decimo of the largest size, very handsomely printed, and adorn ed by a vignette title-page engraved for the work. The com piler tells us that he had recourse to the writings of more than three hundred British Poets, of the present and three preceding centuries. As usual in such compilations, the extracts are placed under proper heads, in alphabetical succession. - ln each of these divisions, too, a chronological arrangement has been observed, which, as Mr Addington remarks in his preface, pre sents the reader with a view of the progress of our language.
