Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. From the decay of Greek liberty and genius Roman poetry arose. But along with the genuine power of receiving and reproducing Greek influences, the Italian poets derived from their own country a capacity of feeling and depicting the beauty of Nature, a gravity, earnestness, and moral fervour, which they shared with the Latin orators and historians, an imagination peculiarly impressible by ideas of vastness, order, and majesty, and a sympathetic admiration of the imperial greatness of Rome.
