AS 4 writer, Sue shows his want Of a high

of the workings of animal nature; especially
when he speaks OF them IN animals merely, they
have the simplicity OF the lower kind with the
more full expression OF human nature. His pie
lures of women are of rare excellence, and It is
Observable that the more simple and pure the
character Is, the more justice he does to it. This
