Reading edition
VOL. I.
On the first board: Finished the 4th time, April 18, 1741. Judicium de authore.[1]
[Footnote: 1 The note "Finished the 4th time April 18, 1741," which Scott and Fitzgerald record as written on the first board of vol. i., is not now to be traced, the volume having been rebound since their transcripts were made.]

"The word of a king." This phrase is repeated some hundred times; but is ever foolish, and too often false.—Swift.
