Excerpt from Holiday Dreams: Or Light Reading, in Poetry and Prose

I commenced author uncorrected, though unflattered by the few friends who had read my manuscripts, with the exception of my brother, who was ever ready to amend my orthography, to transcribe for me, 1n his unliterary and legible way, any thing, especially which came recommended by Act I, Scene I, &c. &c. I wish he had ever been paid for his pains and trouble mine were self-requited beforehand. He also undertook the mechanical offices of counting lines and calculating pages, consulting printers, publishers, editors, and other ers and are, obligations which I trust I may be excused for thus acknowledging.
