Excerpt from Memoirs of the Court of England During the Reign of the Stuarts, Including the Protectorate, Vol. 1 of 3 IT is a fact, which cannot have escaped observation, that while French literature abounds with private memoirs and personal anecdote, our own is deplorably deficient in agreeable chronicles of this nature. To the author, or rather compiler, of this work, the want appeared to be less owing to the absence of materials, than to a requisite diligence in bringing them to light in a word, that there existed a supply of latent stores in our own language (buried, as it were, among voluminous records and forgotten pamphlets) suflicient to form a succinct social history of distinguished characters, who figure more or less in every portion of our annals.
