Excerpt from British Monachism: Or Manners and Customs of the Monks and Nuns of England The favourable reception of the original edition of this Work in two thin 8vo. volumes, 1802, induced the author to revise and enlarge his composition, (to form the quarto edition of 1817, ) under the circumstances, and the manner, described in his own Preface, of which a copy is annexed. It was very gratifying to its Author that this enlarged and improved edition was respectfully quoted by Sir Walter Scott, in his novel of the " Monasteryand it was also favourably noticed in the "Quarterly Review," and in the other literary journals. The public generally having justified this favourable opinion by the work again becoming scarce, Mr. Fosbroke was induced shortly before his lamented death, to prepare for the press the present Edition, which was one of the latest acts of his laborious literary life. This present Edition has been printed in a compressed manner, as a companion to the new and improved Edition of Mr. Fosbroke's "Encyclopedia of Antiquities."
