The Natural History of the Insects Mentioned in Shakspeare's Plays (Classic Reprint)FB&C Limited, 26 Oca 2018 - 296 sayfa Excerpt from The Natural History of the Insects Mentioned in Shakspeare's Plays Ir was my duty, in common with other members of the Natural History Society of Belfast, to furnish papers for some of those meetings in our Museum, held on what are termed Public Nights. On these occasions ladies as well as gentlemen are admitted as visitors, and the reader abandons, in a great degree, the technicalities of science for metal more attrae tive. Several of these papers I had the honour of read ing at various intervals between the lat of March 1832, and the lat of January, 1836. They were then thrown into the epistolary form, in which they appear in the following pages; and with the excep tion of some verbal amendments, and the introduc tion of some additional quotations, as the sheets were passing through the press, they are now printed as they were then arranged.
