Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

There can be no doubt entertained, by a reflecting mind, that the wide diffusion of the light and elegant literature of the day is exerting a powerful influence on the community, and especially on the youthful mind; and it is therefore incumbent on the friends of truth to aid the circulation of such works of taste as shall produce the best moral and religious effects. In this volume, an attempt has been made to show, that literary elegance and Christian instruction may happily coalesce. The editor feels his oblio-ations to the kindness of those who have enriched his voiume with their efforts, and hopes for a continuance of their aid. J. O. C. Newport, R. I., Oct,
