Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Life of James, Duke of Ormond, Vol. 1 My Lord, The subject of this work naturally recommends it to your lordship´s patronage. It containeth an account of the life and actions of your grandfather, whose amiable virtues and excellent talents formed the completest character which appeared in the age wherein he lived. His noble ancestors had in a course of some hundreds of years set him a constant example of hereditary loyalty; but his was distinguished by such eminent trials, temptations, and difficulties, as very rarely happen, and to which few minds are equal. The prevailing wickedness of the times wherein he lived, and the various circumstances of his own affairs, and those of the kingdoms which were the scene of his actions, served only to add a lustre to his virtues, and to set in a fuller light the wisdom and integrity of a conduct, which deserves the admiration of all ages, and was scarce ever paralleled in any. The world hath too long wanted such an example of heroic virtue, loyalty, and honour, as is fit for the imitation of latest posterity.
