4< To the honor oi Mr. Bciquiu's ttffte,
it may belaid, that lie has united ginpie
elegance with iiitererting variety, but ri
gidly feparat< d both l/om the ffghteft ap
pnpech of whatever is vtilgar or puerile:
a met it' much more eatily praised than imi
-1 ated. The art of «u,ufing child-en,whilft
it the £ime time tl(i lnf.mt Genius is rais
ed and ilie Heart mend: d, appears from
'•is works to lie 110 Contemptible effort of
the mind. Wherevei, therefore, the uti
lity of Inch an undertaking is acknotflcdt
ed, the reputation of' Mr. Bftqui,i mull
ever lie held in deferred cfteem.
" Happily filch n tile agreeable trerfiftfll.
tjr ot Mr. Uejquiu'sfty4e » rr H genutsj thai
it woultl be dithcult to pronounce in what
department he excels : wither in the
lively or the pathetic; the fiiriple language
of narrative, or the animated points of
conversation : whether in ihrewct remarks
upon privaic liie, 01 in florid defection
of the beauties of nature.
" Pieces of every varioni excellence
that is to be found in the writing* of Mr.
Berquin, compose the following volume,
which, it is hoped, wiU be thought a valu
able substitute (whe.e such may be preJer

work* of the fane author."
