Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Agabus, or the Last of the Druids: An Historical Poem
For a woman to pretend to treat learnedly on a sub ject so abstruse as that of the Druids, would be to prove a conceit whose sole parent must be ignorance, yet to choose for the subject of our pen one with which we are totally unacquainted, would be to ask from the well-known generosity of the British press for that leniency of criticism which it ever so wil lingly accords to the feebler mental powers of my sex; but, at the same time, a generosity which we cease to merit, when we cease our exertions to de serve it.
