Tess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman

From the English edition

The main portion of the following story appeared—with slight modifications—in the _Graphic_ newspaper; other chapters, more especially addressed to adult readers, in the _Fortnightly Review_ and the _National Observer_, as episodic sketches. My thanks are tendered to the editors and proprietors of those periodicals for enabling me now to piece the trunk and limbs of the novel together, and print it complete, as originally written two years ago.
