Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rob Roy, Vol. 1 of 3 When the Editor of the following volumes published, about two years since, the work called "The Antiquary," he announced that he was, for the last time, intruding upon the public in his present capacity. He might shelter himself under the plea, that every anonymous writer is, like the celebrated Junius, only a phantom, land that therefore, although an apparition of a more benign, as well as much meaner description, he cannot be bound to plead to a charge of inconsistency.

I The fire, fed with blazing turf and branches of dried wood, blazed merrily in the centre; but the smoke, having no means to escape but through a hole in the roof, eddied round the rafters of the cottage, and hung in sable folds at the height of about five feet from the oor. The space beneath was kept pretty clear, by innumerable currents of air which rushed towards the fire from the broken pannel of basketowork which ser ved as a door, from two square holes, de signed as ostensible windows, through one of which was thrust a plaid, and through the other a tattered great-coat and more over, through various less distinguishable apertures in the walls of the tenement, which, being built of round stones and turf, cemented by mud, let in the atmos phere at innumerable crevices.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rob Roy, Vol. 2 of 2: A Romance "Look round thee, young Astolpho: Here's the place Which men (for being poor) are sent to starve in, - Rude remedy, I trow, for sore disease.

The Prison, Scene III. Act I. At my first entrance I turned an eager glance towards my conductor; but the lamp in the vestibule was too low in flame to give my curiosity any satisfaction by affording a distinct perusal of his features.
