Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Observations on an Autograph of Shakespeare, and the Orthography of His Name: Communicated to the Society of Antiquaries
The Chatterton forgeries are now preserved in the British Museum, mss. Add. 5766, a.b.c. And exhibit the most decisive proofs of the impudence of the imposture, and the obstinate igno rance of those who were to the last its champions. These defenders Of Rowley argue that Chatterton was incapable of reading any work of research but if so, how is it we find among his fictions the list of romances printed in Madox's Formulare Anglicanum, and a copy of the kneeling figure of one of the Howard family.
