This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1805. Excerpt: ... The Doctor says, he meant by Damien's iron the rack; but I believe that the newspapers informed us that he was consined in a high tower, and actually obliged to lie upon an iron bed. My eyes are so bad with a defluxion, that it is painful to me to write. I am, 8cc. Thomas Davies." "Dear Sir, London, Nov. 5, 1771. Inclosed are some additions to and corrections of your History, written by Mr. Duncombe (a Clergyman, of Canterbury), the translator of several Odes of Horace: I suppose this is the gentleman who published the works of Mr. John Hughes. I begin to be impatient for your Supplement: I am afraid you are too solicitous to make improvements, and to collect additional matter. Pray consider that it is an endless business to seek for persection in a work that is in its own nature imper-" sect. Remember the old adage, Manum de tabula. Take care too, that your additional volume does not exceed the legitimate size. Consider what a vast Work you have before you, your continuation; and do not forget the aphorism of Hippocrates, Vita Irevis, &c. Have you seen an impartial account of Goldsmith's 'History of England?' If you want to s,3 know know who was the writer of it, you will sind him in, Russell-street;--but mum.--I am, &c. Thomas Davies." Dear Sir, London, Jan. II, 1772. I have received your letter to Mr. Cadell. We are both highly pleased with the progress you have made in the Supplement, and heartily wish to have it published as soon as possible. Your great care and assiduity, diligence and labour, deserve, not only our thanks, but our attention to your interest as well as our own. We shall be willing to give you sifty guineas for this Supplemental volume: and, if the success answers our reasonable expectations, we mall not limit ourselves to that sum. ...
