What a strange wish, to be preferred by a young lady to a young man, who has seldom seen you, at times and in situations which admit of no disguise, and which draw forth all our secret foibles and who, at best, has neither a sober nor impartial judgment. Still, however, I will do my best. If I blame you, your pride may occasionally impute it to my ignorance; if I praise, your mo- desty will naturally suggest some doubts of the sincerity of one, who sets a very high value on your good opinion, and who thinks your smiles cheaply bought, even at the price of some dupli- city. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-04105.xml Sat, 10 Apr 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-06185.xml sir , http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-06185.xml Sat, 19 Jun 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09281.xml May heaven have compassion upon those whose doom it is to ply the quill in hot weather! If this task require uncommon diligence, at any time, it makes double demands upon us at a sultry season. And if the habitually industrious, may claim some excuse for indolence, at such a time, the Lounger cannot doubt of a ready forgiveness. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09281.xml Sat, 11 Sep 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09291.xml (To be continued). http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09291.xml Sat, 18 Sep 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09304.xml [Moiverius or De Moivre, (or Accius Secundus, according to the fashion of that age, which allowed the learned to assume new names of their own choice) was a French- man of the sixteenth century, and a celebrated writer of Latin poetry. In the bloom of life, he conceived the de- sign of retiring into the bosom of the Alps, and renounc- ing all intercourse with the world, but that which is maintained by reading and writing, and this design he actually executed. He sought the most desolate part of the Ligurian shore, and fitting up an apartment in a half ruined fortress, which belonged to a nobleman of Bur- gundy, one of his patrons, he secluded himself from all society but that of shepards, fishermen, and hunters of the boquetin. He relinquished this life, after some time, chiefly at the importunity of Laura D'Orvilliers his mis- tres... http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-09304.xml Sat, 25 Sep 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-10307.xml L. Well then, I will. I will take you at your word, yet I would not if you did not give other proofs than merely verbal ones, of curiosity and interest in my homely tale.

At one time we see him the associate of a band of bravos, who had spread terror through the city of Venice, at another the companion of senators, and a distinguished favourite of the doge; at one time the descendant of a noble family and heir to a princely fortune, at another an impostor; at one time the ac- tual murderer of Matheo, and the reputed murderer of his best friends and benefactors, at another as the deliverer of Venice from the scourge of assassins, and the preserver of those lives which he was supposed to have destroyed; at one time as the real bandit driven by persecution to seek a refuge in profligacy, at another as having only assumed that appearance for virtuous purposes; in short, at one time as the terrible Abaelino, whose name made “the republic tremble,” and at another as the ac- complished, amiable, gallant Flodoardo, not less esteemed for his private worth than adm... http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-12472.xml Fri, 01 Jan 1802 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1802-L-148.xml Will my friend do me the favour to accept the enclosed little volume It may not unprofitably amuse a vacant hour, & the ruled pages will invite her to practice the first & simple rules of a necessary economy.

He seems anxious to bring this affair to some amicable termination, &, for his own satisfaction, wishes to be indulged with the sight of a certain letter of instructions, dated some- time in March, 1800, from himself to M Dawson, which letter, it appears by a Memorandum with us, is in your possession. If you should not be able to find it among your papers, you must let us know, that we may, if we can, supply you with it in due season.
