Excerpt from Scenes and Adventures in Spain, From 1835 to 1840 The following attempt to describe some of the scenes which came under the writer's observation during his sojourn in Spain, at a period when that interesting but distracted country was passing through one of the many ordeals to which it has unhappily been subjected, was made at the request of some friends who had heard him descant upon this, his favourite topic, and speak with that interest and that affection with which his heart will ever I be filled for a land where he has passed so many happy days, and from whose inhabitants of all ranks he has ever received the most disinterested kindness.
