Glenmore Abbey, or the Lady of the Rock. By the Author of Ariel. 3 Vols. Lane and Co. 1805.
The indescribable descriptions with which this novel abounds are vastly fine, and the more surprising as they appear to be pure unsophisticated emanations, unassisted by art or science. Not even grammar, viz.
'Which leads where thou, fair Goddess, dwells with endless sway.' V. 3. p. 63.
Mr Lane, with his authors, frequently reminds us of Lazarillo and his parents, who would not let him learn any thing lest it should spoil his natural parts. [complete]
