Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Miscellanies in Prose and Verse I hope my readers of this class will not be disappointed with my amateur efforts, but will find in the volume that which will tickle and amuse. There must of necessity be circumstances and occurrences in this life to force seriousness upon us, such as grinding poverty, and the severance of ties of affection and friendship. Levity would be out of place in the presence of want, affliction, and mourning, but I do not see why seriousness should be cultivated as though it were an attribute of goodness. There is a time to laugh, and there are persons so constituted, with such a keen and ready perception of the humorous and the ludicrous, that when any droll sight or saying suddenly present themselves to the eye and ear, for such persons to resist the impulse to laugh would be impossible. Such was the case with one of Bradford´s worthies, the late Dr. Godwin. The following anecdote which I have heard, if true, illustrates and confirms what I have stated.
