Excerpt from Female Robinson Crusoe: A Tale of the American Wilderness
Oh, Solitude! Where are the charms Which sages have seen in thy face? Gowns.
I AM a woman. I have arrived at about the age of twenty-seven years. My computation of time may or may not be exactly correct, but probably is not. Much out of the way.
Subsequent details, in this my long, yet I hope not uninteresting narrative, will more fully explain to the reader, what my difficulties are, upon the point of a just statement regarding the precise length of the term of existence, which I have so far passed in this trouble some world.
