Alexander
Pope
was
an
English
poet,
was
born
in
London
1688,
died
1744.
He
was
deformed
and
afflicted.
It
is
said
of
him,
"As
a
Poet,
He
was
made,
not
born;
His
poetry
is
mechanical
and
immitative,
but
never
the
less
holds
an
honored
and
prominent
place
in
English
literature.
If
he
did
nothing
else
for
the
world
that
would
make
him
great,
the
remodling
and
suiting
these
verses
to
the
"Christian
Religion"
will
ever
live
to
make
him
cherished
and
grand
in
the
world.
