Excerpt from The Cabinet of Irish Literature, Vol. 2: Selections From the Works of the Chief Poets, Orators, and Prose Writers of Ireland, With Biographical Sketches and Literary NoticesI will now proceed to lay before the reader a brief but more general sketch of the state. Of Irish society at the period of my youth, reminding him of the principle which I have before assumed, namely, that of considering anecdotes, hon-mots, and such like, valuable only as they tend to exemplify interesting facts, relative to history or manners, many such I have inserted in these fragments, and as I have been careful throughout to avoid mere inventions, my reader need not, by any means, reserve their perusal for the study of his travelling carriage.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
