Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lectures on Rhetoric and Belles Lettres, Vol. 2 of 3
In order to render his work of greater service, he has generally referred to the books which he consulted, as far as he remembers them; that the readers might be directed to any farther illustration which they a?'ord. But, as such a length of time has elapsed since the first composition of his Lectures, he may, perhaps, have adopted the sentiments of some author into whose writings he had then looked, without now remembering whence he derived them.
