To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
how friendly her eyes look as she sits there bending forward ! — listening is she ? with arch half-smile, slightly amused at the long stories we are telling her, but all in the most genial neighbourly way. By-and-by surely a mellow Irish laugh will burst into the silence. Who was she, this sweet Nelly ? We do not know, nor what became of her, nor whom she made happy with those smiles of hers." In his Life of Sir Joshua Reynolds., Mr. Claude Phillips refers to the frequency of the visits of Nell...y O'Brien to the studio, from which has been supposed that she sat to the cold- hearted Reynolds for the figures of his portraits of ladies, and he quotes from his pocketbook for 1762, an entry: " With Miss Nelly O'Brien in Pall Mall, next door to this side the Star and Garter." What she was is hinted at in Leslie and Taylor's Life and Times of Sir Joshua Reynolds : " She was the chere amie of Lord Bolingbroke, as well as everybody else (see Walpole's letter to George Montague, NELLY O'BRIEN NELLY O'BRIEN 63 March 29, 1766)." She was indeed one of the most fascinating women of the day, and entangled a great number of high-born persons in her net at the same time.
