Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hours With Eminent Irishmen and a Glimpse of Irish History
A DIM stone upon the darkened wall of St. Patrick's Church in Dublin sums up in words at once cruelly bitter and profoundly melancholy the story of a great man's life. That mouldering inscription, niched in high obscurity, which sometimes stray pilgrims from across the seas strain their sight to decipher in the gloom, is the self-uttered epitaph of Jonathan Swift.
