The above work with the exception of a few 
pieces, has been felected from a variety of the beft 
Dramatic Writings in the Englify Language. No 
pains has been {pared to make'the Selection ufetul 
and pleafing. Several of the Dialogues have never 
appeared elfewhere, in the prefent form, and for the 
one between Lindor and Florimed,on the comparifon 
of Ancient and Modern Virtue, the Editor is indebt- - 
ed to a claflical friend whofe name he is not at lib- 
erty to mention.” No recommendation has been 
folicited, to give the work currency. If any merit 
is attached to it, the difcernment of Preceptors in 
particular, and the public im general, the Editor fat- 
ters himfe!lf, will properly rate its worth, and give 
it circulation accordingly. -
