Valentine Vox
First words
In one of the most ancient and populous boroughs in the county of Suffolk, there resided a genius named Jonathan Vox, who, in order to make a fortune with rapidity, tried everything, but failed to succeed in anything, because... (show all) he could stick long to nothing.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)With his beautiful, devoted Louise, his sweet children, his good mother, and Uncle John---who was always in a state of rapture, and seldom, indeed, whether at home or abroad, without a child upon his knee---he continued to live in the purest enjoyment of health, wealth, honour, and peace.
