P. 238. 1. 18. As Mr. Knight has con<p€ived me to have 

 . been mistaken iu every thing that I have advanced 

 ,\vith respect to the temple of Vesta at Tivoli, and 

 as he has thought it worth his while to write an 

 additional section for the purpose of pointing out 

 those mistakes, I must endeavour to .shew that 

 I am not so completely in the wrong, as he wishes 

 to make me appear.* 



. Every author I presume has a right to expect, 

 that a candid adversary will pay some regard to 

 the general intention aud spirit in which the part 

 he criticises ^» written ,• and not lay hold of a par- 

 ticular section and conisider it separately, as if it 

 had no connexion with what had gone before. 

 There was no difficulty in discovering my inten- 

 ' tion ; for not to mention the general tenor of all 

 that had been said on the subject, the para- 

 grabh immediately preceding the one which 

 r^U^es'to the temple at Tivoli, was written for 

 the e^epress purpose of guarding against any mis- 

 conception.-^

 jnorc liian four pages, this general reference I imagine is sufBcieul.
