Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Thomas Gray, Thomas Parnell, William Collins, Matthew Green, and Thomas Warton The Poets, Whose verses are included in this volume, bear a kind of relationship to each other, and seem to gain a grace and a charm from the bond of fellowship that unites them.

What learned hands have already adorned the story of their life and their genius, the Editor need not mention; but he is bound with gratefulness to record his own obligations to the elegant researches of Mr. Mitford; to a pleasing edition of Collins, by Mr. Dyce and to the affectionate gathering and annotation of Warton's poetry, by the late Bishop Mant.
