Excerpt from Romance and Reality
Of this fine being, whose life and death have so deeply interested, not England alone, but Europe and America; not where the English language is spoken or read, but throughout the civilised globe, several biographies have been published; generally pretty accurate as to facts and dates, but hardly sufficient to satisfy the inquiring mind. Nor have we, in a sketch necessarily so brief as this, an opportunity to discuss the phenomena of her extraordinary nature; but our view, however limited, must differ materially from aught that has gone before. The best account of her more infantile years is that which proceeds from her own pen.
