Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Political History of the Fifteenth, Sixteenth, and Seventeenth Centuries In consenting to edit this translation, I cannot but feel that I have undertaken a task which ought to have been executed by far abler hands. The death of Mrs. Austin has deprived us of one who united a masculine power of understanding with the tact and delicacy peculiar to a woman. Had she fulfilled her intention of looking over these pages the reader might have been sure that the meaning of the author was correctly given, and that it was conveyed to him in pure and idiomatic English. No doubt, too, the fact that those who have executed the translation are near and dear to her, would have secured at her hands peculiar care in its supervision.
