Mr Cooper
[+] No microscope with
equally magnifying
powers has found
its way into the hands
of Mr Cooper.

The It now seems senses our field of vision has of late days received very
considerable improvement. The minute In the
abovementioned the minuteness of the object has not proscribed
the successful direction of it from coming
within the range of the contemplative philosophy eye. the eye of the learned
Gentleman now presumably learned Judge. Codification is among of the number the words
with of the coinage of which the author of these pages can not
consistently with truth declare himself not guilty — To To the
eye or ear and then to the pen the note of Mr Copper the word codification has
somehow or other found its way: for his or n
no fewer than those whereof are in French the other two in
English whereof the last an augmented re-editor of the French
all employed in making war upon the intruding object
the sign and the thing signified : yet from no syllable in it was
could any reader be led to any so much as the faintest
suspicion that any such person was the of it has
was or ever been in existence.

In the best account of gratitude
he stands indeed
indebted to the learned
gentleman for a copy of
every one of these Volumes:
But it must have been
in his quality of Bencher
of Lincolns Inn not
in that of author of the
Codification proposal
that these repeated
honours have been
received by him.

With From these sentiments it follows as of course
it can not be matter of regret an object of his wishes that instead of cases
against the acts by which obedience to the laws can
be rendered pr brought within the field of possibility talent & in the learned
gentleman to has mentioned had not found some occupation
which to the public had been should afford a promise of being
more profitable. these wishes In his subsequently published
work work in which under a title though beginning with the word brief not quite so brief as might have been wished the
reader will find a highly valuable continuation and supplement to Mr Purley's History
of the Court of Chancery,
these wishes have received gratification: the more extreme
the reading and meditation bestowed upon it, the more efficient
will be the assistance given to it by it to the design by which
the present work has been brought into existence.
