THE following elegant description of England, this much-favoured Isle by Nature, written by the immortal Shakspeare, is so beautifully comprehensive, though concise, that no apology will be necessary for its insertion.

ENGLAND.

This royal throne of Kings, this scepter'd isle,
This earth of Majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-Paradise,

This fortress built by Nature for herself,
Against infection, and the hand of war;
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or of a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands.
