Excerpt from Lesser Questions
If there were a Rip Van Winkle of this century, the space of his slumbers would appear to him revolutionary. If we review the changes which have come over England since the beginning of the reign of George IV., we shall find much to awaken surprise. It is true that we regard the early part of this century with much less interest, perhaps, than any other time in the annals of our country; true, also, that we know less of the immediate past than of less close times, the records of which form part of our education.
