CLARISSA
A novel
By SAMUEL RICHARDSON
EDITED by E. S. DALLAS
AUTHOR OF THE GAY SCIENCE
“The prolixity of Richardson, which, to our giddy paced time, is the greatest fault of his writing, was not such a fault to his contemporaries. But a modern reader may be permitted to wish that Clarissa had been a good deal abridged the beginning.”
Sir Walter Scott’s Memoir of Richardson.
