Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Benvenuto Cellini After the lapse of less than three months a second edition of this book was called for, proving that it had found favour with the public both in England and America. Some few typographical errors are rectified in the new edition; and I have translated the original sonnet which Cellini prefixed to his autobiography. With these exceptions, no alterations of any importance have been made. The reception granted to my part of the work by numerous critics and reviewers emboldens me to think that the translation is not in need of immediate revision.
