Narrative to
reach through the greater part of the first volume; as besides all the
circumstances of his attachment to her mother, and their marriage, it
will comprehend his going to sea as chaplain to a distinguished naval
character about the court; and his going afterwards to court himself,
which involved him in many interesting situations, concluding with his
opinion of the benefits of tithes being done away with . . . . From
this outset the story will proceed, and contain a striking variety of
adventures. Father an exemplary parish priest, and devoted to
literature; but heroine and father never above a fortnight in one
place: he being driven from his curacy by the vile arts of some
totally unprincipled and heartless young man, desperately in love with
the heroine, and pursuing her with unrelenting passion. No sooner
settled in one country of Europe, than they are compelled to quit it,
and retire to another, always making new acquaintance, and always
obliged to leave them. This will of course exhibit a wide variety of
character.
