But we must take care not to be carried too far in our depreciation of German light literature by our indignation at the over-estimate formed of some of its professors. Let us admit that there are admirable authors a fact which it would be impossible to deny with such works before us as Tieck's, and Hoffman's, and a host of others quos nunc perscribere longum est.
Nos sumus in quos decucurrerunt fines seculorum, "upon us the ends of the world are come," is the burden of Tertullian's impassioned argument. What were art and letters to those who waited, from moment to moment, for the glory of the Second Coming?
Even Macpherson never mounted his ancestors on horseback, though he has the impudence to talk of their being car-borne and that, my lord, is what is running in Hector's head it is the vehicular, not the equestrian exercise, which he envies Sunt quos curriculo pulverem Olympicum Collegisse juvat.

Lauti cibum capiunt: separatae singulis sedes et sua cuique mensa: tum ad negotia, nec minus saepe ad convivia, procedunt armati. Diem noctemque continuare potando, nulli probrum.
