""Two Odes, From The Latin Of The Celebrated Rapin: Pindaricks"" is a book written by Francis Bragge and published in 1710. The book contains two odes that were originally written in Latin by the renowned poet Nicolas Rapin. The odes are in the Pindaric style, which is characterized by irregular stanzas and a grand, elevated tone. Bragge's translation aims to capture the spirit and style of Rapin's original works, while making them accessible to English readers. The first ode is a celebration of the Duke of Marlborough's victory at the Battle of Blenheim, and the second is a tribute to the city of Paris. The book is a testament to the enduring popularity of classical literature and the influence of Latin poetry on English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
