 which I will call Horti Anglic. I intend to write to ,

 I fhall out pf my own Garden ; and all thefe make up 

 one Catalogue. Herein I fhall give the Synonyma of

 ciety, fo would it ftill be fome Comfort to me to 

 know that I retain a Place in your Thoughts and 

 Efteem, though the meaneft, I am,
