Book Description
Excerpt from Jonathan Swift, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel Matthew Prior, in the pseudo-official position I have mentioned, saw a good deal of Lauriel during the three days' interval which elapsed between her accept ance of the proffered honour and the royal visit, and the more he saw of her the more desperately in, what he thought was, love did the poor poet fall. As a natural con sequence, he became hourly more anxious to find out who was the mysterious rival he had seen at the cottage. Of course he could have found out by asking the ques tion if there were no secret, and by giving a hint to his guest the 'sergeant if there were. He had been afraid to do either the one or the other, because he felt that the man was, in fact, this De Guiscard whom the sergeant -was making inquiries about, and that Mrs. Swift was criminally responsible for harbouring, and would suffer if detected. By the evening in question. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
