Pfcfacc. This Novel is one of the newest and most modern now extant, and is out of the common track of novel writing: it is an attempt to unite the various merits and graces of the ancient romance and modern novel; and, like history, represent human nature as real life. To attain this end, there is required a degree of the marvellous to excite the attention, and real manners of life to give an air of probability to the work, and to engage the heart in its behalf. The characters are admirably drawn and supported ;the diction polished and elegant; and the whole KO closely connected, as to keep the imagination of the reader continually alive to the subject before him. Thus mankind are naturally pleased with what gratifies their vanity ;and vanity, like all other passions of the human heart, may be rendered subservient to good and useful purposes. The reader is not, therefore, confused with the association of truth with fiction, although fiction is the basis of the story.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.

Not illustrated. 1839 edition. Excerpt: ...the manner of her punishment I will not tell you, for suspense and doubt aggravate affliction of every kind: know this only, she shall wed another. The drug had begun its operation indeed, and a torpor not to be resisted was creeping over my whole frame, yet when Lord Somertown pronounced the last fatal words--' she shall wed another,' my expiring senses were awakened, and the fury that transported my soul inspired one last effort of strength: I flew and seized the collar of my insulting foe, but whilst I held him struggling in my grasp, he contrived to stamp with his foot, and several of his creatures came to his assistance. I was easily secured, for the shortlived energy had already subsided, and my stiffening limbs, and stupified senses overpowered me more than the united strength of the bravoes. "From this moment I remembered nothing more, until I found myself confined in a narrow inconvenient recess, which appeared intended for a bed; but the cruel way in which my hands and feet were manacled, prevented me from stretching myself upon it, so as to obtain any rest. Impenetrable darkness enveloped me, but the constant splashing of water close to my head, convinced me that I was upon the sea, in some vessel, des tined by my persecutor to convey me far from that happy land, where unjust imprisonment is forbidden by the laws. "At first I was at a loss to account for my wretched situation, but by degrees my recollection returned, and the dreadful truth flashed on my awakening senses. It is surprising to me at this moment that „phrenzy did not seal my wretchedness, for I remembered the dreadful words, 'she shall wed another;' and in the agony they excited, I attempted to tear off the manacles that confined me; the effort I made was...

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
