Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Rogers, Campbell, J. Montgomery, Lamb, and Kirke White, Vol. 1 of 4 With a strong attachment for the Muses, after the excellent education Rogers received, it is not surprising that he ventured before the public. His first work was an Ode to Superstition, and other Poems, which appeared in 1786. This was followed by a second publication, The Pleasures of Memory, when he had passed the greenness of youth, having attained his thirtieth year In 1792 this poem was received by the public with universal applause. The subject was happily chosen, coming home to the business and bosoms of all: it was executed with great care.
