HARVARD COLLEGE LIBRARY GIFT OF THE AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY KF 18237 PREFACE. THIS Volume completes the published works of Miss Bremer. The introduction of these writings to the British public has been a great pleasure to me; and I am sure that they have not only strengthened many a heart in the fulfilment of daily duties, but have caused the path of household life to be strewn with the roses of love and kindness We all owe thanks and gratitude to Fredrika Bremer; and whilst I shall endeavour, through the favour of the Public, to perfect still more and more these my translations, I now b'd her for the present an affectionate farewell.
