III. Their Use in the Cultivation of the imitative arts: shewing, that were the study of oratory made a necessary Branch of the education of youth; poetry, musick, painting, and sculpture, might arrive at as high a Pitch of Perfection in England, as ever they did in Athens or Rome.

III. Their Use in the Cultivation of the imitative arts: shewing, that were the study of oratory made a necessary Branch of the education of youth; poetry, musick, painting, and sculpture, might arrive at as high a Pitch of Perfection in England, as ever they did in Athens or Rome.
