Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Edward Copleston, D.D: Bishop of Llandaff; With Selections From His Diary and Correspondence, Etc Moreover, I am sure that the expectations of a large circle of friends await my attempt, and thus lay me under a sort of obligation to undertake that, to which (if I know myself) no foolish ambition to appear in print would have moved me. Having before me a carefully-kept diary, and a variety of letters, kindly supplied, I have made it my chief object to select and arrange these, giving but few of my own sentiments, and leaving the subject of my Memoir to speak, as far as possible, for himself. Of the letters, it is difficult to avoid saying either too much or too little; I will, therefore, content myself with remarking that, if not strikingly original in thought or expression (which was not, indeed, the bishop´s manner), they are generally models of good English and good taste, having also those characteristic touches which give the effect of a truthful sketch, satisfying us the better, because it is unstudied, and suggestive of more than is actually before us.
