Panegyrical

Let us (ſaith he [Gregory of Nazianzus]) celebrate this feaſt, not in a panegyrical but divine, not in a vvorldly but ſuperſecular manner; not regarding ſo much our ſelves or ours, as the vvorſhip of Chriſt, &c.

The days of description (personal and panegyrical) are passing rapidly away.

Birmingham, indeed, has recently been styled "the best governed city in the world"--a title that is, perhaps, a trifle too full and panegyrical to find ready and general acceptance.
