English Men of Letters: Crabbe

Capitolo 2

George Crabbe and William Wordsworth, have divided the fate common of
those writers that, possessing a very moderate power of the self-criticism,
it evidently is not able to discriminate between their good job and them
bad. Both you/they have suffered, and it still suffers, in public estimate from
this cause. The middle reader of poetry doesn't desire to have to cross
