Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fate, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale of Stirring Times
But, while writing about plagiarism, I have been myself a plagiarist and it Shall not remain without acknowledgment, since I have suffered somewhat in that sort my self. Hear, my excellent friend, Leigh Hunt, soul of mild goodness, honest truth, and gentle brightness! I acknowledge that I stole from you the defensive image of Wouvermans' white horse, which you in cautiously put within my reach on one bright night of long, dreamy conversation, when our ideas which, in several things, wide as are the poles asunder, met suddenly with out clashing, or produced but a cool, quiet spark, as the white stones which children rub together in dark corners, emit a soft phosphorescent gleam which serves but to light their little noses.
