Ulric, the Farm Servant - Translated From Gothelf #230870

Songs of Tuscany,' the truth of Italian peasant character animated by sincere Catholic religion, I find it my next most instant duty to place in parallel light the more calculating and prosperous virtue of Protestant Switzerland. This I am enabled to do merely by translating the story by Jeremias Gotthelf, called Ulric the Farm-servant, — which, if the reception granted it encourage me, will be followed, as in the original work, by its continuous history of Ulric the Farmer.
