Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Parson´s Daughter "In France," says one of the most accomplished writers of the day, treating of French statistics, "there is no primogeniture;" a startling fact at first sight, but for which, upon a little consideration, we can find an easy solution. The fair authoress means to say that there is no law of primogeniture in that happy and well-regulated country. We have not the slightest intention of going into a discussion upon the merits of such a law, or the advantages of its abrogation; but we have to put before the reader an example of the effects which its existence sometimes produces, in the person of the Right Honourable Lady Frances Sheringham. He who denounced commingled pride and poverty as one of the bitterest curses of mankind, curses of mankind, could never have found a better illustration of his principle than in the daughter of a nobleman, accustomed through life to all the splendour and luxury properly incidental to her station, mixing in society on terms of equality with all that is great and gay by which she is surrounded, suddenly About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
