HIS performance has been so very, universally and
justly admired, that it needs but little recommen
dation from a publisher. The story is highly interest
ing ; the language elegant, harmonious, pathetic, and
impassioned. Its chaia&eriftics are an amiable philan
thropy, and peculiar delicacy of sentiment, confpicuoua
though the whole.---While it entertains the fancy and
delights the imagination, it has an irresistible tendency
to improve the heart and impress ®n the mind the no
bleit and most exalted fentimentr.
To those who contemplate with pleasure the dignify
of byman nature supported with manly firmnefs amidst
the reiterated attacks of adverse fortune, it wil afford
the highest entertainment, And to the foul of sensi
bility, which “ melts at every human woe, and finds
a luxury in indulging the sympathetic tear, this tender
tale of loft diftrefe will he an unrivaled favourite.
