Read it through once

I have said that when the language of men is copious and figurative, it betrays the poet, and reveals him as having had recourse to the mere resources of phraseology. Hence it follows, that in order to avoid these faults, we must have recourse to the description of the passions themselves. When the passions are described in strong and natural language, they will supply images and phrases of a new order; and the mind conscious of emotion will not need to borrow from conventional diction.
