(Forgotten Books, Feb. 17, 2011)
IT is now four years since this book first appearedbefore the public, and I feel it my duty 110t to let asecond edition go forth into the world without a fewwords of accompaniment. It hardly seems necessaryto assure my readers that I have endeavored to earnfor the following pages the title of a "corrected edition."An author is the father of his book, and whatfather could see his child preparjng to set out on a newand dangerous road, even if it were not for the firsttime, without endeavoring to supply him with everygood that it lay in his power to bestow, and to free himfrom every fault or infirmity on which the world couldlook unfavorably? The assurance therefore that I haverepeatedly bestowed the greatest possible care on thecorrection of my Egyptian Princess seems to me superfluous,but at the same time I think it advisable to mentionbriefly where and in what manner I have found itnecessary to make these emendations.
