England -- Social life and customs -- 19th century -- Fiction; Rogues and vagabonds -- Fiction
So much on the subject of my relatives and associates. On the subject
of myself, I might still write on at considerable length. But while the
libelous title of “A ROGUE’S LIFE” stares me in the face at the top
of the page, how can I, as a rich and reputable man, be expected to
communicate any further autobiographical particulars, in this place,
to a discerning public of readers? No, no, my friends! I am no longer
interesting--I am only respectable like yourselves. It is time to say
“Good-by.”
End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of A Rogue’s Life, by Wilkie Collins
