Χαλεπῆς νόσου, καὶ δυσιάτου ἀπαλλαγὴν, ἣν ἄνθρακα καλοῦσιν.

Philo.

Τὰ τεμνόμενα τῶν ἐθνῶν τολυγονώτατα, καὶ πολυανθρωπότατα εἶναι.

Καθαριότητος εἵνεκεν.

Bochart.

Ὁ Ἶλος, τὰ αἰδοῖα περιτέμνεται, ταὐτὸ ποιῆσαι καὶ τοὺς ἅμ’ αυτῷ συμμάχους καταναγκάσας.

Sanchuniatho.

Nous aurions quelque interêt, says Baillet, de montrer qu’il n’a rien de ridicule s’il étoit veritable, au moins dans le sens énigmatique que Nicius Erythræus a tâché de lui donner. Cet auteur dit que pour comprendre comme Lipse, il a pû composer un ouvrage le premier jour de sa vie, il faut s’imaginer, que ce premier jour n’est pas celui de sa naissance charnelle, mais celui au quel il a commencé d’user de la raison; il veut que ç’ait été à l’âge de neuf ans; et il nous veut persuader que ce fut en cet âge, que Lipse fit un poëme.⁠⸺⁠Le tour est ingénieux, etc. etc. ↩

Vid. Book of French post roads, page 36, edition of 1762. ↩

Chief Magistrate in Toulouse, etc. etc. etc. ↩

Non orbis gentem, non urbem gens habet ullam⁠⸺⸺⁠⸺⸺⁠ulla parem.

The same Don Pringello, the celebrated Spanish architect, of whom my cousin Antony has made such honourable mention in a scholium to the Tale inscribed to his name. —Vid. p. 129, small edit. ↩

Vid. Pope’s Portrait. ↩

Rodope Thracia tam inevitabili fascino instructa, tam exactè oculus intuens attraxit, ut si in illam quis incidisset, fieri non posset, quin caperetur.

⸺⁠I know not who.

This will be printed with my father’s Life of Socrates, etc. etc. ↩

Mr. Shandy must mean the poor in spirit; inasmuch as they divided the money amongst themselves. ↩

He lost his hand at the battle of Lepanto. ↩

This must be a mistake in Mr. Shandy; for Graaf wrote upon the pancreatick juice, and the parts of generation. ↩
