I am only an amateur. Never took pen in hand before to indite more than a few notes. I preach always impromptu. No, no; they'd treat me as the barnyard fowls would a wild bird if it came to peck at their corn.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
