Excerpt from Han d'Islande; Bug-Jargal; Le Dernier Jour d'un Condamne; Claude Gueux

Du reste ces ha'utes matieres ne se rattachaient pas encore tres visi blement au sujet de cet ouvrage, 'et il eut ete fort embarrasse de trouver une liaison qui l'y conduisit, quoique l'art des'transitions soit singulierement simplifie depuis que tant de grands hommes ont trouve le secret de passer sans secousse d'une echoppe_ dans un palais, et d'echanger sans disparate le bonnet de police contre la couronne civique.

Reconnaissant donc qu'il ne saurait trouver dans son talent ni dans sa science, par rer ailes ou par son bee, comme dit l'ingenieuse' poesie des arabes, une preface interessante pour les lecteurs, l'auteur de ceci s'est determine a ne leur ofirir qu'un recit grave et naif des ameliorations apportees a cette seconde edition.
