Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Claudia
'i i I. I: writing the following tale, has been to show the distinction between the in tellectual and the spiiitua-l and the insufficiency of mental powers, even though they be of a high order, either to render their possessor wise unto salvation, or to make him a fit instrument to ao complish a lofty mission amongst men. I am pain fully aware that I have not carried out my design as I would have wished, that my work is a very imperfect one; but I humbly commend it to Him whose blessing alone can render it useful, and who knows under what a sense of Weakness I have penned my little story.
