Poems: Moral And Descriptive (1784)

By Richard Jago

Book Overview

Poems: Moral and Descriptive is a collection of poems written by Richard Jago and published in 1784. The poems cover a range of topics, from nature and the countryside to morality and virtue. The collection is divided into two parts: the first consists of descriptive poems that celebrate the beauty of the natural world, while the second contains more moralistic poems that offer guidance and advice on living a virtuous life. Jago was a clergyman and poet who lived in the English countryside, and many of the poems in this collection reflect his love of nature and his deep Christian faith. The descriptive poems are filled with vivid descriptions of the countryside, from the rolling hills and babbling brooks to the flora and fauna that inhabit it. The moralistic poems, on the other hand, offer readers a set of guidelines for living a good life, with themes such as honesty, humility, and charity.Overall, Poems: Moral and Descriptive is a charming and uplifting collection of poetry that offers readers a glimpse into the mind of a thoughtful and devout poet.
