Edward Bulwer Lytton 
Zanoni 

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I refer those who do me the honour to read ‘zanoni with more attention than is given to ordinary romance, to the Poem of king arthur, ‘ for suggestive conjecture into most of the regions of speculative research, affecting the higher and more important con dition of our ultimate being, which have engaged the students of immaterial philosophy in my own age.
