Note 82 — THE ACCOMPLISHED FOOLS.
Reading edition
Astræa was a French romance by Honoré d'Urfé, translated for the second time in 1657. Clelia was by Madame de Scudery, who lived until 1701. Cassandra, by Gautier de Costes, Seigneur de la Calprenède, was translated in 1652. These translations were all in folio; and they are all in the list of a lady's library given by Addison in the Spectator, No. 37, together with Steele's Christian Hero. Oroondates, in Cassandra, was the only son of a Scythian king.
