Excerpt from The Holy and Profane States: With Some Account of the Author and His Writings
IN order to bring this volume within a rea sonable compass, portions, including the Lives, have been omitted, as less peculiar and inter esting: Many passages and a few chapters have been excluded, as incompatible with the refined delicacy of modern manners. The most valuable parts, however, it is believed, are retained, everything, indeed, which readers in general, at the present day, would wish to have inserted.
