A Greek has affirmed that every lcUimtwork
m.ift hr, hr oiriffiKlniaaie;'anaan enT.tHAa-
us ol Salilbury, iboufthe year iTJOi rttiA Arifto
tie, and repeated his dogmas. 1 Oiould be forry to
. lay that Sterne's wit, and the romance f Rabelais,
were baftard Oips of genius. Thejrare abrupt de:
, fultory capricious writings, but if, Jike Horace s
raero, they pleale an the tenth repetition, what care
how fuddeiily they end, Such amufing pages Ihould
have no Finis -,. 1 wifh there were more fuch begini
nings, and as for the middle of Sterne, a witty wo
man hater would fwear that there was not fuoh a
luxurious middle, in all the female circles of the
world. . '.
