I, the writer, have principally touched upon scenes, objects, and subjects belonging this sublunary world, holding the conservative notion that it is best for a man to keep within his own sphere. I have ventured in one lofty flight to touch on those luminaries, the sun, moon, and stars, but not so as to affect their evolutionary motions, or throw any new light on them. The deepest subject that I have tried to fathom is coal, a subject that might give much light if properly handled, though some consider it a miner question that may be easily settled. As I have not been a student in any department of science or learning, I do not presume to teach, therefore there will be found in this volume little that is instructive. To some.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters and Miscellanies in Prose, Rhyme, and Blank-Verse As for the critics, they may find it amusing to throw dust into other people's eyes, but we don't - gold dust more particularly; and as for making the fine eyes to sweeten their cream-o'-tartar visages, that's out of the question; cause why, it's much' easier for some folks to make ugly faces now-a - days, than pretty ones. And then, the supposition of their ever looking much beyond the title-page of one-half the books they undertake to praise or berate so unmercifully, is so refreshingly verdant, that it would be cruel to tan talize the locusts and caterpillars by any such preten sion! So, you see, there is no help for it - they will e'en have to abuse us to their heart's content; though our own private opinion (publicly expressed) is, that they will feel far more fatigued than satisfied, when they have done; for we intend to go right off to an insurance office, and then if we are killed with a criticism, it will be a matter for the stockholders to look into.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Miscellanies, Vol. 1 of 2: Prose and Verse Maginu's part in the matter has now to be narrated. Upon hearing of the assault on his publisher, he lost no time in avowing the authorship of the offensive review, and in intimating, in accordance with the usage of the period, that his friend Mr. Hugh Fraser was prepared to receive a message. A hostile meeting was arranged the combatants met in a field in the Barnet Road; and three shots were exchanged, at the last fire Maginu's bullet grazing the collar of his adversary's coat, and the bullet of the latter striking the ground beside Maginu's boot. Upon this third ineffectual exchange of shots, the account runs, the seconds interfered, and the parties, bowing to each other, left the ground without explanation.

This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary Miscellany, or Selections and Extracts, Classical and Scientific; With Originals, in Prose and Verse: Miscellanies Admired as Mr. Shenstone is as a poet, his char acter, as a man of clear judgment, and deep pene tration, will best appear from his prose works. It is there we must search for the acuteness of his under standing, and his profound knowledge of the human heart. It is to be lamented, indeed, that some things here are unfinished, and can be regarded only as fragments: many are left as single thoughts, but which, like the sparks of diamonds, shew the rich ness of the mine to which they belong; or, like the foot of a Hercules, discover the uncommon strength, and extraordinary dimensions of the hero. I have no apprehension of incurring blame from any one, for preserving these valuable remains: they will dis cover to every reader, the author's sentiments on sev eral important subjects. And there can be very few, to whom they will not impart many thoughts, which they would never perhaps have been able to draw from the source of their own re ections.

They had scarcely finished their song, when a stranger stepped from beneath a thicket, where he had been listening to the bird - like voice of Lizza. He approached the Spot where sat the old man and his beautiful daughter, resting her head upon his shoulder, and very politely accosted them. The old man was much disturbed at his approach, and by no means gave him a hearty welcome. The stranger looked at the fair girl with astonishment. He had often seen the old man in the market but had never dreamed of his having so beautiful a daughter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
