praising someone or something very much by saying good things about them and not mentioning any bad things

Hill had published a panegyrical poem on Peter the Great. 希尔发表了一首关于彼得大帝的赞美诗。

The language was standard panegyrical rhetoric comparing the youthful vigour of a new emperor with the mature counsel of an older colleague. 这种语言是标准的颂赞修辞文体，将新皇帝的年轻活力与年长同僚的成熟谏言作了比较。
