Excerpt from Rattling, Roaring Rhymes on Mormon Utah and Her Institutions: Life Among the Rocky Mountain Saints, the Land of Many Wives and Much Silver, Or, the Follies and Crimes of Bigamy Young and His Po-Lig; DivinesThe ancients tell a story, that in the long ago Ante-deluvian, or among the Pre-historics, for aught I know - there were two beautiful maidens, who together went bathing in the waters Of forgetful ness. That one Of the maids stole away, and arrayed herself in the garb Of the other, and has ever since wandered in the vast, illimitable fields Of human credulity. The other maid, disdaining the cast-off garments Of her fellow-bather, has followed her devious windings - in great distress. The one is called Falsehood; the other, Bare - naked Truth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
