Text Appearing Before Image:
of pure weakness ofheart. To THOMAS LOVE PEACOCK,On the Publication of his ^ Nightmare Abbey.- LivoRNO, July 6, 1819. We have changed our design of going to Florence im-mediately, and are now estabhshed for three months ina little country house ^ in a pretty verdant scene nearLivorno. I have a study here in a tower something like Scythrops,^where I am just beginning to recover the faculties ofreading and writing.^ . . . From my tower I see the seawith its islands, Gorgona, Capraja, Elba, and Corsica onone side, and the Apennines on the other. 1 Now knowE as Villa Mecocci, on Via del Fagiano, Leghorn. - A character in Nightmare Ahheij somewhat resembling Shelley. The tower no longer exists, hut the house-top is enclosed by a low parapet ofbrick and commands the same extensive view. Mrs. Shelley says, In thisairy cell he wrote the principal part oiThe Cenci. 3 After the death of his son WUliam in Rome on June 7th. ( 126 ) )()KTU.\IT of Ikiitrice Ccnci.

Text Appearing After Image:
-See Preface to The Ceuci, p. I- THE YEAR 1819 All good wishes and many hopes that you have alreadythat success on which there will be no congratulationsmore cordial than those you will receive from me. PROM THE PREFACE TO^^THECENCI )i On my arrival at Rome I found that the story of theCenci was a subject not to be mentioned in Italian societywithout awakening a deep and breathless interest; and thatthe feelings of the company never failed to incline to aromantic pity for the wrongs, and a passionate exculpationof the horrible deed to which they urged her who has beenmingled two centuries with the common dust. All ranksof people knew the outlines of this history, and participatedin the overwhelming interest which it seems to have themagic of exciting in the human heart. I had a copy ofGuidos picture of Beatrice which is preserved in theColonna Palace, and my servant instantly recognised itas the portrait of Za Cenci. 1 endeavored whilst at Rome to observe such monu-ments of this story
