Excerpt: ... » 1 ions of a Scholar I admire most; but I know myself so well, as to be sensible how Hiuch I fall short 6f it. 1 have herein inclosed somethirig that will still try your patience and goodness. JTis a poor copy of verses, which (aftei: a loUg desuetude) I ventured to make in France, upon, the occasion of presenting my last book to the King's Library; and I met with such friends, who to shew their civility to me, commanded it to be printed at the Royal Printing-houste, and published their candor at the expense of exposing my faults.

And I hope the first will come out by next midsummer. Lucan is the next book, which is printing at Mr. Tonson's and his partner's press; but these other typographical works have made the Classics go much slower. And I find the labour growing under my hands.
