Excerpt from Desmond a Novel, in Two Volumes, Vol. 1 of 2
In sending into the world a work so unlike those of my former writings, which have been honored by its approbation, I feel some degree of that apprehension which an Author is sensible of on a first. publication.
This arises partly from my doubts of succeeding so well in letters as in narrative; and partly from a supposition, that there are Readers, to whom the ficitious occurrences, and others to whom the political remarks in there volumes may be displeasing.
