A description of the Island of St. Helena. . .  It is such a
scene of rapture, that had the Child of Fancy, Shakespeare,
beheld it, after such a voyage as ours, his description and
imagery would (if possible) have surpassed every thing he
has given us: --For I may truly say with him,
  "The Object and the pleasure of mine eye,
   Is only Helena." . . .
