Excerpt from The Gentleman's Magazine and Historical Chronicle, Vol. 89: From July to December, 1819<br><br>IN announcing a continuation of our labours, we have once more to thank our numerous and kind Friends. In taking a Review, however, of the Times, as usual, we feel ourselves much in the situation of jeneas, when he made his perilous journey to visit the shade of his father Anchises. We have to pass a River Styx, and the courts where Minos is sitting in judgment, and inflicting punishment upon various Revolutionary Ixions, Tityuses, and Prometheuses, in order to arrive at those peaceful classical shades, where the spirit of Musmus sings in heavenly strains the grand elementary principles of creative power. We trust, how. Ever, that those Giant Sons of Earth, Anarchy and Irre ligion, will not remove the mountains which the Parliamen tary power of our Constitutional Jupiter has laid upon them.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
