Excerpt from Ernest Maltravers, Vol. 3 of 3 "Deceit is the strong but subtile chain which runs through all the members of a society, and links them together; trick or be tricked, is the alternative: 'tis the way of the world, and without it intercourse would drop." Anonymous Writer of 1722. "A lovely child she was, of looks serene. And motions which o'er things indifferent shed The grace, and gentleness from whence they came." Percy Bysshe Shelley. "His years but young, but his experience old." Shakspeare. "He after honour hunts, I after love." Ibid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
