Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + + +</pre> + + </body> +</html> diff --git a/old/44434-h/images/cover.jpg b/old/44434-h/images/cover.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644

He, with the lady of his +affections, joins a Pic-nic, endeavors to be exceedingly amusing, and +succeeds in making himself "Very ridiculous." + + + + + +PLATE 6 + +Mr. Lambkin, at an evening party, being full of Life and Spirits (or, +rather Wine,) gives great offence to the lady of his affections; by his +Philanderings, and completely ruins his fortunes by dancing the Polka +with such violence as to upset poor old John, the coffee, and indeed, +the whole party. + + + + + +PLATE 7 + +Mr. Lambkin, overwhelmed with shame and vexation, resorts to Kensington +Gardens in the hope of obtaining a meeting with the Lady of his +affections--He burns with Rage, Jealousy, and revenge, on seeing her +(in company with Miss Dash) holding sprightly converse with the Long +Cornet ------------ He feels himself literally _cut_. + + + + + +PLATE 8 + +After meditating desperate deeds of Duelling, Prussic Acid, Pistols, +and Plunges in the River, Mr. Lambkin cools down to a quiet supper, a +melancholy reverie, and a warm bath at the Hummums.--The morning sun +shines upon him at Epsom, where, with the assistance of his friends and +Champagne, he arrives at such a pitch of excitement, that he determines +to live and die a Bachelor. + + + + + +PLATE 9 + +Mr. Lambkin of course visits all the Theatres and all the Saloons; he +even makes his way to the Stage and the Green-room, and is so fortunate +as to be introduced to some highly talented members of the Corps de +Ballet. + + + + + +PLATE 10 + +Mr. Lambkin goes to a Masquerade as Don Giovanni, which character +he supports to perfection. He falls into the company of certain +Shepherdesses who shew the native simplicity of their Arcadian manners +by drinking porter out of quart pewter mugs. They are delighted with the +Don, who adds to the porter a quantity of Champagne, which they drink +with the same degree of easy elegance as they do the Beer. + + + + + +PLATE 11 + +Mr. Lambkin and his friends, after supper at "the rooms," indulge in +the usual nocturnal amusements of Gentlemen--the Police officiously +interfere with their pastime--Mr. Lambkin after evincing the noble +courage of a Lion, the strength of a Bull, the sagacity of a Fox, the +stubbornness of a Donkey, and the activity of a Mountain Cat, is at +length overcome by Policeman Smith, A. 1. + + + + + +PLATE 12 + +Mr. Lambkin and his friends cut a pretty figure in the morning before +the Magistrate--their conduct is described as violent and outrageous, +and their respectability is questioned--Mr. Lambkin and his friends +insist upon being Gentlemen, and are of course discharged upon payment +of 5s. each for being drunk--and making good the damage at the prices +usually charged to Gentlemen. + + + + + +PLATE 13 + +Mr. Lambkin makes some most delightful acquaintance.--'The Hon. +D. Swindelle and his delightful family, his Ma, such a delightful +lady!---and his Sisters, such delightful girls!!--Such delightful +musical parties,--such delightful soirees, and such delightful card +parties,--and what makes it all still more delightful is that they are +all so highly delighted with Mr. Lambkin. + + + + + + +PLATE 14 + +Mr. Lambkin in a moment of delightful delirium puts his name to some +little bits of paper to oblige his very delightful friend the Hon. +D. Swindelle, whom he afterwards discovers to be nothing more than a +rascally Blackleg,--He is invited to visit some Chambers in one of the +small Inns of Court, where he finds himself completely at the mercy +of Messrs. Ogre and Nippers, whose demands make an awful hole in his +Cheque-book. + + + + + +PLATE 15 + +Mr. Lambkin, finding that he has been variously and thoroughly befooled, +foolishly dashes into dissipation to drown his distressful thoughts--He +joins Jovial society and sings "The right end of Life is to live and be +jolly!" + + + + + +PLATE 16 + +Mr. Lambkins's habits grow worse and worse!--At 3 o'clock a. m. he is +placed upright (very jolly) against his own door, by a kind hearted +Cabman. + + + + + +PLATE 17 + +Mr. Lambkin finds that he has been going rather too _fast_ in the +Pursuit of Pleasure and Amusement, and like all other Lads of Spirit +when he can go no farther comes to a standstill.------ Being really very +ill he sends for his Medical Friend who feels his pulse, shakes his head +at his tongue, and of course prescribes the proper remedies. + + + + + +PLATE 18 + +Mr. Lambkin has to be nursed and to go through a regular course +of medicine, taking many a bitter pill and requiring all the sweet +persuasive powers of Mrs. Slops to take his "regular doses" of "that +horrid nasty stuff." + + + + + +PLATE 19 + +Mr. Lambkin being tired of the old-fashioned regular practice, and being +so fortunate as to live in the days when the real properties of +Water are discovered, places himself under a Disciple of the immortal +Priessnitz. + + + + + +PLATE 20 + +Mr. Lambkin buys a regular hard-trotter, and combines the +health-restoring exercise of Riding with the very great advantages +of Wet Swaddling clothes. + + + + + +PLATE 21 + +Mr. Lambkin's confidence in the curative powers of Hydropathy being +very much damped, and being himself quite soaked through, in fact almost +washed away, he takes to the good old-fashioned practice of walking +early in the morning, and drinking "New Milk from the Cow." + + + + + +PLATE 22 + +Mr. Lambkin being quite recovered, with the aid of new milk and Sea +Breezes, he determines to reform his habits, but feels buried alive in the +Grand Mausoleum Club; and, contemplating an old bachelor member who +sits pouring over the newspapers all day, he feels horrorstruck at the +probability of such va fate becoming his own, and determines to seek a +reconciliation with the Lady of his Affections. + + + + + +PLATE 23 + +Mr. Lambkin writes a letter of humiliation--The Lady answers--He +seeks an interview.--It is granted.--He "hopes she'll forgive him this +time"--The Lady appears resolute--He earnestly entreats her to "make it +up"--At length the Lady softens--She lays aside her "_cruel_" work--ah! +She weeps!

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + diff --git a/old/44434.zip b/old/44434.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..80f2ed8 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/44434.zip |
