Friendly to thought, to virtue and to peace,

Domestic life in rural pleasures past!

THE stranger who would form a correct opinion of the English character, must not con?ne his observations to the metropolis.

He must go forth into the country; he must sojourn in villages and hamlets; he must visit castles, villas, farm-houses, cottages; he must wander through parks and gardens; along hedges and green lanes; he must loiter about country churches; attend wakes and fairs, and other rural festivals; and cope with the people in all their conditions, and all their habits and humors.
