Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Montague Newburgh, Vol. 1 of 2: Or, the Mother and Son It was a double train of reflection which suggested the idea of the following narrative to the Author; that of erincing the propriety of a submission to the will of Providence under the severest trials we are called on to sustain, and that of impressing on the mind the necessity of making religion the ground work on which the study of every profession should be erected. Hence arose the two principal characters in "the Mother and Son;" and the one appearing so naturally to spring from the other, it has been endeavoured so to represent them, under an idea, that the influence of women over the virtues and vices of their children is so great, that the growth of the former, and the suppression of the latter depend, in a great measure, on maternal precept and example. The subordinate characters which have been introduced to increase the interest of the story have been formed with a view to the original design of the work; and the incidents occasionally interwoven with the recital by way of variety and amusement, will not, it is hoped, be unproductive of the same effects.
