has ever produced. The odious and ridiculous parts
of their character lie on the surface. He that

attentive and malicious observers to point them
out. For many years after the Restoration, they
were the theme of unmeasured invective and
derision. They were exposed to the utmost
licentiousness of the press and of the stage, at
the time when the press and ...

As the echoing screams and painful cries die down,
take a moment or two to snap back into reality and
