    Excerpt from A Modern Dick Whittington: Or a Patron of LettersShe was but poorly dressed herself, as one of her own sex would have pronounced at once; there were no patches, however, and if she had stood in silk attire, instead of that simple print, she could not have looked more distin guished. It is strange how Often we hear of Nature's noblemen, when Nature's noblewomen, who are much more often met with, are alto gether ignored. SO far as birth was concerned, however, Kate was much the superior of her companion, for she belonged to one of the oldest families in Cm-nwall - se old, indeed, that it had worn itself out; whereas the Mer ridews were Tic/res, only Lawrence was nouveau and not fie/m, as will be presently made plain.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
