Excerpt from The Ministry of the Beautiful
As external objects exert a principal ao tion in exciting our faculties, natural scenery has been made to form the ground-work of the reflections that are presented to the reader. In these the Author has performed no process of manufacture, but has freely told out the thoughts and feelings that have been suggested to his own mind by the scenes described. The conversational form was chosen partly for the, sake of exhibiting some of the modifications of impression pro duced by difference of sex, and partly be cause it seemed adapted to that discursive ness of thought, that was essential to the writer's plan.
