TALES OF TIIE WOODS AND FIELDS.—AIIO-
- production by the author of the " Two Old Men's Tales."
" In the present day we meet with few such writers," observes
the Literary Gazette. "In this work there is the real talent
and the real feeling which alone waken our sympathies.
Human nature is analysed in that spirit of poetry which is the
only spirit by which the secrets of the heart are known in this
world. The stories are simple. Their charm is from their
colouring and their truth. The first tale is of a beautiful girl,
bred up in country seclusion, knowing nothing of thel!orld
h
but its affections. She is suddenly transferre to ahigher
sphere—surrounded by every gratification and luxury; and all
invested by that deepest charm—that of orginating the love of
him she loves ; gradually she awakens to the certainty of such
love having passed away ; and the change and struggle are
most exquisitely painted."
