A LADY OF QUALITY

Being a most curious, hitherto unknown
history, as related by Mr. Isaac Bickerstaff
but not presented to the World of
Fashion through the pages of
The Tatler, and now for the
first time written down
by
Francis Hodgson Burnett

   Were Nature just to Man from his first hour, he need not ask for
   Mercy; then ’tis for us—the toys of Nature—to be both just and
   merciful, for so only can the wrongs she does be undone.
