Fuseli Phrasis Congenial Imnitation Recited

CONGENIAL IMITATION Nature and collective idea not modified by fashion or by habit, enthroned to day and dethroned tomorrow. The artless balance of emotion founded on propriety,art emerged into life.An immense connected well of congenial invitation unmoved by the clamour of the crowd not presuming to exhaust the inexhaustible, the harmony of the whole when novelty and feeling warm a bosom or extort a tear. From Fuseli lecture to the RA 1801 *A Phrasis is a structured verse where the poet uses selected prose phrases of another writer’s(not a poet) to compile unique poetry therefrom as a tribute thereto,the word phrasis is Greek for phrase.
