PREFACE, 
Tue rapid sale of the former Edition of 
this little volume has induced the Editor 
to add considerably to the attraction of the 
present, by having the plates engraved on 
a considerably larger scale than those in 
the first Edition. 
It is no small gratification to him to 
know that his most numerous patrons are 
among ‘‘ the fairest flowers of the British 
isles ;”—are they ‘‘ who were born to render 
life delightful ;’? and for whose especial 
use and amusement this little work was 
originally prepared.
