Excerpt from The Bible in Ireland: Ireland's Welcome to the Stranger, or Excursions Through Ireland in 1844 and 1845 for the Purpose of Personally Investigating the Condition of the Poor Refaces, ' says Francis Bacon, are great P wastes of time, and, though they seem to proceed of modesty, they are bravery.'
