of Parliament, but very ill read in the great
Book of Human Nature, informs us upon the

to teach it afterwards to thatthe peopleof another.
So strong is the madness for etymologizing
both for words & manners, that reasoners
like Ld Coke would fetch overinstitutionsinstruction
in this mysteryupon rafts from Florida or
Mexico, if they did not hear by good luck
of its having been practised a little nearer

well conceive that according to the old proverb &
common experience, good should strengthen add strength to the
currentof the Passions, but I should never have thought
of its changing questionable reading
