POETICAL REGISTER, AND REPOSITORY OF FUGITIVE POETRY, FOR 1803. LONDON: PRINTED FOR F. AND C. RIVINGTON, By Bye and Law, St. John's Square, Clerkenwell. 1804. ill ADVERTISEMENT. 918 P7442 1803 IN the advertisement to this volume, the Editor of the Poetical Register has little more to do than to express his gratitude to the Public, for the patronage he has already received, and to his poetical friends, for the ready and generous assistance by which he has been enabled to obtain that general patronage, which is so flattering to the preceding volumes, and, consequently, to those who have contributed to their formation. He trusts that the favour of the Public will keep pace with the exertions he has made to de serve it. To his correspondents, he cannot too strongly represent the necessity of sending their contributions as early as possible. The present volume has been delayed some months, by the Editor not having received, in time, some promised assistance. From the same cause, many productions, which would have added to the worth of this volume are now delayed till the appearance of the next. As the Poetical Register for 1804 must be put to press in a short time, the editor earnestly requests, that all communications for may be sent without delay. it A M553717 |
