George Agar-Ellis, Lord Dover : The true history of the state prisoner, Commonly called the Iron Mask

'Pray read Agar Ellis's ' Iron Mask;' not so much for that question [that of old age], though it is not devoid of curiosity, as to remark the horrible atrocities perpetrated under absolute monarchies; and to justify and extol Lord Grey, and, at the humblest distance, Sydney Smith and other men, who, according to their station in life and the different talents given them, have defended liberty.'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Sydney Smith      Print: Book
