TRANSLATIONS.

Translated into blank verse by R. Potter. "The translation "itself, considering the difficulty of the undertaking, has great “merit. It is but just to say, that some imperfections and in"accuracies in Mr. Potter's version are more than counterba"lanced by its excellencies; and that there are many passages "rendered with peculiar felicity." Monthly Review." The "translator has happily preserved that dignity of style, that "bold and descriptive imagery, for which the author is pecu"liarly distinguished."
