NONCON - Crit. Review For 1766. p. 328.
A writer in one of the reviews falls with great
asperity upon Mr de Voltaire for
palliating seeking (as it seems to him)under in
one of his pieces this to
introducing in the article Amour Socratique
palliate the guilt of this offence This he does in the Grief of Griefs while without attempting to invalidate the truth of any of these observations which appear to him to be introduced for the sake of it in the design
of a miscellany entitled The Philosophical
Dictionary" observations
I dare answer for that gallant philosopher his physical abhorrence against this fickleness falls short in nothing to that of this Reviewer.
What is curious, the circumstance argument which
Mr de Voltaire assigns as the reason
for his not holding it innocent, the only
circumstance property on from which it's political & consequently
moral guilt can reasonably rationally be
inferred established it's evil influence on
population not without at least an appearance at least of propriety it sollicitous to the Reviewer contests this for
of lust of propensity: not with this, forsooth, forsooth, he
was the being the artificer of the Frenchman's
artifice, to throw the opinion of it's guilt
upon a false an untenable foundation, in order to remove
it from the true.
