Excerpt from Recantation: Or the Confessions of a Convert to Romanism: A Tale of Domestic and Religious Life in Italy
This volume is a reprint of one published in London during the last year. A friend placed it in the hands of the Editor, because from his acquaint ance with the scenes in which the story is laid, and the opportunities he had enjoyed of gaining some knowledge of the tone of thought and feeling pre vailing in Italian society, it was believed he might be able to decide on the justness of its claims to be taken as a faithful picture.
