Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Adelaide, or the Countercharm, Vol. 3 of 5: A Novel
Oh! Why, why did not this engage ment take place sooner? Or why at all exclaimed Rosalind, wringing her hands in an agony of augmented grief: for, in One case, it would have prevented my nu doing; but now it only adds to my dis traction: since, until now, I found a con solation for my sufferings in the delusive belief, that when I was removed, my poor ill-fated Falkland would have found in you a wife deserving of his excellence; and my poor boys, a maternal protectress, who' would not suffer them, - whatever the World might do, - to execrate their mo ther's memory.
