Targum
Publisher Description
The following pieces, selections from a huge and undigested mass of translation, accumulated during several years devoted to philological pursuits. That the character of a nation is best distinguishable by the general tone of its poetry, has been frequently remarked, and is a truth which does not admit of controversy; the soft songs of the Persian, and the bold and warlike ditties of the Dane are emblems of the effeminacy of the one, and the reckless heroism of the other.
