rugged old man; in the extremity of furious despair; with the softness and 

beauty      of   the   female     form。    The    fatal   field   might     be   thrown      into 

perspective;   so   as   to   give   full   effect   to   these   two   principal   figures;   and 

with the single explanation that the piece represented a soldier beholding 

his   son   slain;   and   the   honour   of   his   country   lost;   the   picture   would   be 

sufficiently intelligible at the first glance。            If it was thought necessary to
