ON THE LIFE, WRITINGS, AND GENIUS OF A KENSIDE: WITH SOME ACCOUNT OF HIS FRIENDS. BY CHARLES BUCKE, AUTHOR OF THE BEAUTIES, HARMONIES, AND SUBLIMITIES OF NATURE. 66 The spacious west, Pleasures of Imagination. LONDON: 1832 TO JOSEPH M CREA, ESQ. DEAR SIR, To whom can I dedicate these pages with so much propriety, as to One, whose surgical skill preserved the life of a son; and to whose never-sleeping kindness and consideration I have been indebted, on a thousand different occasions ? “No years can wash these grateful thoughts away!" I would have sought leave to signify my respect; but I would not be denied. Accept, then, this memorial as it is meant; and believe me to be, Your very faithful and affectionate friend, THE AUTHOR. London. |
