Excerpt from Bentley's Miscellany, 1844, Vol. 16 Meanwhile, Mr. Snarry became more melancholy, in spite of all Mr. Joe Jollit's recommendations to the contrary. He declared he could not rouse himself; and if he could not, 1t was certainly not from a paucity of attempt on the part of his friend to divert him, for Mr. Jollit dragged him by sheer muscular strength to Rosherville every gala night, and even introduced him to the young, lady who sang coquettish ballads from an exalted position in the ore estra gal lery, between the dances, which was a distinguished honour many gallant hearts sighed for, but in vain. He took him to out water cresses at Spring Head, and drink tea at Cobham; he lured him into sailing excursions and balls upon the Town Pier; be practically de monstrated to him that the amenities of social life were in force at Gravesend - that nobody was proud, but pleasant and affable - that formal introductions were things unknown, even to the fairer portion of humanity there locating, but that soft words might be whispered during the fireworks, upon the strength of one or two minutes' ac quaintanceship, when all was dark and romantic. But the more he took Mr. Sastry into the whirl of gaiety, the more sad did that gen tleman become.

What between Mr. Jollit's voice, and Mr. Pippa's flute and fiageolet, frequent opportunities were afi'orded him of doing so, which increased rather than diminished his passion; indeed, be one day wandered into the fields with the intention of weavin a chaplet of wild flowers, only in the first place he did not know ow to do it, and in the second, if he had, he could not find any. And so the expedition was a failure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
