But the truth is----that Glumdalclitch was little; and literally so; she was only nine years old, and (says the captain) 'little of her age, ' being barely forty feet high.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collected Writings of Thomas De Quincey, Vol. 6 Knowledge on any subject; nor is its main Object that of delight to the reader by dreams and pictures of the poetical kind; nor does it seek merely to rouse and stimulate the feelings for active exertion of some sort 3 but, without any of these aims, or while perhaps studying one or other of them to some extent, it has in View always the solution of some problem, the investigation of some question, so as to effect a modification or advance of the existing doctrine on the subject. How firmly De Quincey held by this notion of the distinctive characteristic Of the Essay, as compared with other kinds of writing, appears from the striking word in which, after referring to the three above-named essays as examples of his own efforts in this line, he claims the merit of fidelity to his principle, in intention at least, in all his other efforts of the same general character.
