Excerpt from Zapolya: A Christmas Tale, in Two Parts: The Prelude Entitled "the Usurper's Fortune;" And the Sequel Entitled "the Usurper's Fate"
Are cases in which an interval of twenty hours between the acts would have a worse efi'ect (i. E. Render the imagination less disposed to take the position required) than twenty years in other cases. For the rest, I shall be well content if my readers will take it up, read and judgeit, as a Christmas tale.
