The Brook has one merit: I am publishing it private- 

 ly, and it will not cost anybody 'thing. The contents 

 with a Hunting Song thrown in, are well worth the money. 



In conclusion, lest that reader I have already re- 

 ferred to should think this Freface light or even amus- 

 ing, let me hasten to assure him that all the rest of 

 the book is very serious; that is a much better word 

 than "dull.
