Description

Excerpt from Donean Tourist: Giving an Account of the Battles, Castles, Gentlemen''s Seats, Families, With Their Origin, Armorial Ensigns, Badges of Distinction, Carefully Selected From the Rest Authorities; And Interspersed With Anecdotes, and Ancient National Ballads

But I cannot stoop to the hacltueyed slang cant phrases of begging the candid reader to be lenient in his judgment, as the writer never tasted the balsamic draughts from_the alembic of the nursing alma mater, and like a poor menial looking with down-cast eyes before some lordly master, supplicating pardon - for what some tri?ing fie: pm, or a mere nothing. Mankind in general are now disgusted with such mean idioms, and condemn the whole work without farther impaction.
