Letters of Sir Wiri1am Jones to Samuert Darts, Esq. 25 
to return it, when you have written the errata inthe margin. There will 
not be time this season to print any large additions to it, as the whole vo- 
lume of 500 pages is ready for publication: your Hindu Ecliptick is 
engraved, but I have no impression of it here, or would annex it. I had 
the pleasure of sending by Mr, Glass a Hindu drawing of the Ecliptick, 
&c. Wilford’s paper fills 168 pages; he and you are the pillars of our 
Society. Farewell, my dear Sir, and continue to esteem me 
Your ever faithful 
W. JONES.

My dear Sir, 
Lest you should hear of my illness, and we should lose the pleasure of 
your company, I write a few lines to say, that my tooth-ach was caused by 
a slight fever, which was so good as to leave me this morning, and Dr. Hare 
has prescribed the bark: I am therefore well enough to enjoy your con- 
versation, and hope, as the weather is now fine, that you will take a family 
dinner with us any day you please: we dine at three, but shall be happy in 
seeing you earlier. 
L? Jones unites with me in hoping for the pleasure of your company ; 
and we beg you will present our kindest remembrance to our friends Mr. 
and Mrs. Chapman. I am, dear Sir, 
Ever truly yours 
W. JONES.

My dear Sir, 
I am recovering slowly from a rheumatick fever, and cannot write with- 
out pain. The annexed paper (which you need not trouble yourself to 
return) I have just received and hastily read : it shows how curious they are 
in England on every subject relating to Indian Astronomy. We have 
abundance of materials for our fourth volume; but I hope it will be em- 
bellished by some paper of yours. An account of the Yantra-rdja, or 
Vor. Il. E
