By the same Author,
TRADITIONS OF PALESTINE.

‘Miss M. has by her Traditions of Palestine, taken a strong hold on the feelings of all who are acquainted with that beautiful volume. She has shown that she is one of those to whom God has confided the golden key which unlocks the fountain of tears.’—American Christian Examiner.

‘The Traditions of Palestine indicated a genius of a high order; there was a lofty and vivid imagination, a habit of mind raised above the petty and selfish interests of the day, joined with a fervid eloquence and an enlightened piety, in that work, which immediately proclaimed its authoress one of the gifted few.’—Spectator.

'Ces traditions, au nombre de sept, sont toutes égalemen riches d'images. Le mouvement dramatique de l'Ancien Testament, les passions terribles qu'il met en scène, avaient engagé plusienrs poètes à en paraphraser des passages; mais jusqu'ici Klopstock avait seul, je crois, osé hasar der une Messiade. ll est curieux que soit une femme qui, la première, ait marchè sur ses traces.—Revue. Encyclopédique.
