Note 4 — INTRODUCTION

Among Croft’s other works were: “A Brother’s Advice to his Sisters,” 1775. “Fanaticism and Treason,” “The Literary Fly,” 1780. “The Abbey of Kilhampton,” 1780—a series of anticipatory epitaphs upon prominent living personages. “Sunday Evenings,” 1784, religious discourses, which Dr. Johnson disapproved of on account of their levity of style (Boswell’s Johnson, Morley’s edition, iv. 231), and a curious French work, “Horace éclairci par la ponctuation,” Paris, 1810.
