"Such has been the growing taste for Sacred Poetry during the past forty years that little apology is needed for re-introducing to the public the works of George Sandys. The name of John Keble and his "Christian Year" are household words; and the impulse given by that beautiful work has doubtless awakened an interest in many a forgotten writer on divine themes." Воспроизведено в оригинальной авторской орфографии издания 1872 года (издательство "John Russell Smith"). Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The poetical works of George Sandys: Vol. 1 (Sandys, George)
