His merit consists in this, and no small merit it is, that he has collated the ideas of these philosophers arranged them in a tangible shape, and has devoted time and money to assist their dissemination. I find on one of his cards, printed for distribution, the following axioms, in the shape of queries, set forth as being his doctrine, not the doctrine which he advocates.

I have myself collated most of the written documents, and one document more, to which the Venetian antiquaries never thought of referring, the masonry of the palace itself. § XLV. That masonry changes at the centre of the eighth arch from the sea angle on the Piazzetta side.

October 21, 1723. DUBLIN, &c. Scott's text has been collated with that given in volume eight of the quarto edition of Swift's Works . In that edition the title is given as: "The Representation of the Clergy of Dublin," &c. He was installed Dean of St. For his open espousal of the Prince of Orange, he was confined to the Castle, and suffered many indignities.

I collated them all at the beginning, but afterwards used only the first. Of his notes I have generally retained those which he retained himself in his second edition, except when they were confuted by subsequent annotators, or were too minute to merit preservation.

The second part should deal with his entry into the world of books; into that account of a long series of collated experiments and partly verified hypotheses we call science; into the imperfectly developed system of inductive and deductive logic which determines mathematics and philosophy; into the long, inaccurate and largely unverifiable account of human blindness and error known as history; and into the realm of idealism, symbol, and pitiful pride we find in the story of poetry, letters, and religion.

Members of searching parties who were able to explore the west side of the city, south of Broad Street, for the first time reported that that section was a scene of vast desolation for a great area, much of it being still under water. The names of more than a half hundred persons were placed under the caption "known dead," while the list of probable dead was too great to be collated at that time.

By these reports, carefully collated with the evidence, I have been enabled to lay before you some of the effects, in one province and part of another, of Governor Hastings's general system of bribery. But now appeared, in the most striking light, the good policy of Mr. Hastings's system of 1780, in placing this screen of a Committee between him and his crimes. The Committee had their lesson.

He gained the favour of that monarch by holding out to him hopes of replenishing his treasury by means of the "philosopher's stone." The wily Italian managed, by his plausible address, to obtain a position which replenished, to some degree, his own empty purse, having been collated by royal favour to the abbacy of Tungland, in Galloway.

We are to understand, however, all India has so understood, always, that the poem is a Soul-symbol, standing for the wars of Light and Darkness; whether this symbol was a tradition firmly in the minds of all who wrote it, or whether it was imposed by the master-hand that collated their writings into an epic for the first time.

A good copy of what appears to be the first edition, is in the British Museum, a small 8vo, without date and from this, collated with the reprint by C. Doe in Bunyan's works, 1691, the present edition is published. Doe, in his catalogue of all Mr.
