Book Description
Excerpt from The History of the House and Race of Douglas and Angus The next point we propound to speak of, is their nobility. There is great contest among men who should be most noble; but where will true nobility be found so entire? 'in what sub jett's race is it so full and perfect, according to all the accep tations and significations thereof? They define it to be a lift ia g or raising up above the vulgar: and what name, I pray. Hath been so elevated, and bath so transcended all other, as this of the Douglases.' They add this condition, that it be for true worth; and bath there been any so worthy? Those that will distinguish it into several kinds, make five sorts of it; 1. Nobility of virtue; 2. Of degrees; 8. Of ofiices and employment; 4. Of birth and descent; 5. And lastly, of fame and renown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
