Excerpt from The Recess, or a Tale of Other Times, Vol. 1
I should but affront a heart which finds its first pleasure in obliging, by asking a formal permission to publish its merits, which alone could induce me to surprise you with this address. Time and distance may have erased the author from your memory, but neither can obliterate from hers the gratitude due to a Gentleman, who uniting sym pathy with science, and generosity with both; becomes to the suffering, a subordinate providence. Indebtedt'o your friendly endeavours 'till my heart. Is as cold as those even your skill could. Not save, I shall always remain, sir, Your highly obliged; Humble Servant.
