Excerpt from The Miscellaneous Works and Novels of R. C. Dallas, Esq., Vol. 2 of 7: The First Volume of Percival

To improve the heart, as well as to please the fancy, and to be the auxiliary Of the divine and Of the moralist, are the best praises Of the best novel writers and if I may aspire to any praise, it is that of keeping those ex am les in view.
