Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rosine Laval: A Novel If, therefore, in seizing this occasion to express a little of it, we should happen to give offence, we say it again, boldly and impudently The first offence is yours! Lay aside that strange fascination of your bright eye! Throw away that magic wand by which you conjure up your potent spells - leave ofl' writing and publishing your sweet and gentle minstrelsy, or else forgive the crime you instigate us to commit. If you will persist in provoking our admiration in so many ways, you* must even submit to the fate you so richly deserve. You have no right to complain, though the phrase may seem uncourte one, if under such circumstances, an author, along with the rest of the world, ventures to lay his humble ofi'ering at the feet of beauty - to render his slight homage to the chosen fa vourite of the tragic muse - to pay the poor tribute of his praise to her, Who, while she plucks the poet's bay, In turn, inspires the poet's lay.
