Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from William Tell; Or, Switzerland Delivered
This picture of Austrian government in Switzerland, in the fourteenth century, does not materially differ from Austrian government in Germany and Italy at the present day. If more deference be now paid to external appearance, the same rooted hatred to liberty is still shown by the Austrian despot. Look to the victims of freedom pining in the dungeons of those coun tries.
