Стр. v - The tale is well told, the interest warmly sustained throughout, and the delineation of female character is marked by a delicate sense of moral beauty. It is a work that may be confided to the hands of a daughter by her parent."— Court Journal.
Стр. i - It is very pleasant, after reading a book, to speak of it in terms of high commendation. The tale before us is an admirable one, and is executed with taste and ability. The language is beautiful and appropriate; the analysis of character is skilful and varied. The work ought to be in the hands of all who are interested in the proper training of the youthful mind,
Стр. iii - This story illustrates, with feeling and power, that beneficial influence which women exercise, in their own quiet way, over characters and events in our everyday life."— Britannia.
