Summary

This quote suggests that while presidential administrations come to an end after a fixed term, problems in society do not have expiration dates. Problems can linger indefinitely, requiring continuous efforts and solutions to address them. Unlike the limited tenure of political leaders, societal challenges necessitate long-term commitment and perseverance to find resolution. It emphasizes the importance of sustained dedication to solving problems since they do not automatically fade away like the end of a political term.

The truth, I am convinced, is that there is no longer a poetical audience among the higher class of minds, that moral, political, and physical science have entirely withdrawn from poetry the attention of all whose attention is worth having; and that the poetical reading public being composed of the mere dregs of the intellectual community, the most sufficing passport to their favour must rest on the mixture of a little easily-intelligible portion of mawkish sentiment with an absolute negation of reason and knowledge.
