Cordelia; or a Romance of Real Life; by Sophia King. 2 Vols. 12mo. 6s. sewed. Lane. 1799.
This is a gloomy tale, not very probable in its incidents, and not [236] very interesting in its progress or attractive in its style. The morality also is sometimes inconsistent with the prevailing ideas of female virtue. For instance, Virtue, it is said, upheld the heroine in the frowning tempest, though she had recently lived in a commerce of illicit love. [complete]
