NOTE.--These pages are written in the character of a shrewd,
observant, and perhaps satirical, but not ill-natured, old bachelor
who knows how to find in his journeyings, by omnibus or otherwise,
matter for reflection and comment, and who communicates familiarly
his impressions of men and things, turning them about so as to get
at their humorous, their practical, and their pathetic aspect. With
these he mingles past and present experiences of life, congenial
episodes, and representative types of character as they suggest
themselves to his memory; but his gossip is always popular in
character, bearing on subjects of social economy and contemporary
ethics necessarily interesting to our common humanity.

NOTE.--This volume, besides dealing with the life and character of

as an ecclesiastical statesman and diplomatist,--unpublished details
of which will be provided from the Archives of the Vatican, his

also the personal characteristics of the Queen herself, and some of
the chief Englishmen of Pole's era.
