I always hissed away the charge, supposing him a man of honour; but I shall now defend him with less confidence. Baretti, in a marginal note, says that C L is 'Charlotte Lennox.

Macbeth, act i. sc. 3. According to Murray's Handbook, ed. 1867, p. 308, no part of the castle is older than the fifteenth century. See post, Nov. 5. The historian. Ante, p. 41. See ante, iii. 336, and post, Nov. 7. See post, Oct. 27. Baretti was the Italian. "Pray, Sir," said Johnson, "do you know who was the author of the Lord's Prayer?"
I mentioned, that Mr. Beauclerk had said, that Baretti, whom they were to carry with them, would keep them so long in the little towns of his own district, that they would not have time to see Rome. I mentioned this, to put them on their guard. JOHNSON. 'Sir, we do not thank Mr. Beauclerk for supposing that we are to be directed by Baretti. No, Sir; Mr. Thrale is to go, by my advice, to Mr.
The poor Doctor would have been happy to hear of this. Baretti says, he is the first man that ever received copy-money in Italy . I said that I would endeavour to do what Dr. Johnson suggested; and I thought that I might write so as to venture to publish my History of the Civil War in Great-Britain in 1745 and 1746 without being obliged to go to a foreign press . When we arrived at Derby, Dr.

Gregory challenges you for an Iceland expedition; but I trust there is no need; I suppose good eyes might reach it from some of the places you have been in. Piozzi Letters, i. 188. Johnson wrote to Baretti: 'I wish you had staid longer in Spain, for no country is less known to the rest of Europe. Ante, i. 365. He twice recommended Boswell to perambulate Spain. Ante, i. 410, 455. 'Dr.
Thrale's friends Baretti, Burke, Burney, Chambers, Garrick, Goldsmith, Johnson, Murphy, Reynolds, Lord Sandys, Lord Westcote, and in the same picture Mrs. Thrale and her eldest daughter.
