The "sort of Preface in the next number" was the character sketch of the late Elia on page 171. Elia did not reach a second edition in Lamb's lifetime that is to say, during a period of twelve years although the editions into which it has passed between his death and the present day are legion.
This magnificent possession, extending four hundred and sixty miles from north to south, and five hundred and seventy from east to west, including, with the Balearic Isles, 171,300 square miles, with a rich and fertile soil and inexhaustible mineral resources, was worth more to the Romans than all the conquests of Pompey and Sulla, since it furnished men for the armies, and materials for a new civilization.

Although I felt in the mood for sticking it as long as I had the strength to keep going, yet I must confess the order filled my soul with a gratitude that was unspeakable.
