On Art

On Art

When we cast our eyes on this broad and spacious world, we are (shocked/astonished) to see the things that gradually rises to our Vision. We see the works of art every day that rolls over our head. We may cast our eyes if we please to the East and to the West and from the North to the South and what do we bhold. We see large and magnificent buildings erected and that is not all how many pyramids which (has/have) been erected by the works of art. And look at the splendid monuments which have been erected in memory of those men which have aided us to gain our sweet liberty and also to show us what has been. Where is any thing more splendid than such a sight as this you may ask yourselves is this the work of art yes that it is. Cast your eyes if you please an view the beautiful ships that cross the pathless Ocean. And you will soon see the works of art.
