A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal
truth. There is this difference between a story and a
poem, that a story is a catalogue of detached facts, which
have no other connexion than time, place, circumstance,
cause and effect; the other is the creation of actions
according to the unchangeable forms of human nature, as
existing in the mind of the Creator, which is itself the
image of all other minds.
