+ There is a vulgar Tale which serves not amiss to
corrobora characterize these Characteristics.
Five Men were in Discourse, one of whom being
fond of shewing his Learning, happened to use
the Word "corroborate" - "corroborate"? says the
other "what is that?" "corroborate — aw —
is — aw — aw, to corroborate: just now
as if I was to corroborate you, or you was to
corroborate me".
A Highway man has robbed me; I see a Friend
well mounted and armed, I shew him which the
Road the Highway man has taken, and desire
him to pursue. He asks me how he is to
know him. O cry I, that's easily done, it's
the Man you are to apprehend. Must not
this be a needs be a Description singularly satisfactory?
Just so much the Reader sees, as to this part of it, in
the Definition in Question.
