Excerpt: ...Present of the Past," by reviving in a dream of the night a tour they had made together "thro' summer France." The Poet asks that, if sleep has "such credit with the soul," as to produce this temporary illusion; it may be farther extended by giving him a stronger opiate, so as to make his pleasure complete, in prolonging this renewal of their pedestrian tour, and reviving other cherished associations.
