Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Anastasius, or Memoirs of a Greek, Vol. 2 of 2: Written at the Close of the Eighteenth Century

That island which gives agues to so many, cured my tertian completely; or per haps only transferred it to some other luckless Wight, most Opportunely in the way to catch the disorder, on its getting tired of its former incumbent. I was, however, only just convalescent, and had scarce left my bed, when, from the heights above Larneca, Hassan's armament was descried five or six leagues out at sea, in full sail for Egypt. That ?eet which I had so long expected now cleft the wave al most under my eyes, without its proximity enabling me to join the nearest vessel of the squadron.
