Excerpt from Over the Pyrenees Into Spain

The Spanish nation is professedly dévote; they forget while professing themselves Chris tians, that hospitality is especially inculcated by Christ, and Heaven itself held out as its reward I was a stranger, and ye took me in.' All, therefore, that this little volume can claim is to be a lively narrative of the scenes I passed through, and the people I met. If it meet from a discerning public as kind and generous a reception as its predecessor, I hope, ere long, to be once more a candidate for equal favour; and meanwhile, I meekly fold my arms, curtsey down to the very ground to the audience in pit and boxes, in grateful thanks for their favour, and hope the gods - i.e. The critics in the gallery - won't hiss me.
