PRELIMINARY NOTICE.

ceived the cordial approbation of the world of letters, and the world at large. Should the present volume meet with success, it will be followed, at short intervals, by two others, comprising the entire collection of the ‘Volksmärchen,’ profusely illustrated. For the translation of the ‘Chronicle of the Three Sisters,’ in the present volume, I am indebted to Madame de Chatelain; for the next I am myself responsible.

W. Hazlitt.
