Am History of a Priory (Classic Reprint)

The collection of materials for the present Publication was commenced rather with a view of gratifying the curiosity of its A uthor, than with a design Of submitting the result of his researches to the Public; but at the instigation of ftn esteem ed, though, it is feared, too partial literary friend, to whom his manuscripts were in a confidential manner shewn, he was induced to make yet more Jealous exertions towards the accumulation of facts, and subsequently to apply himself seriously to the task of arranging them. Without any desire to deprive the critic of his bone, he may be permitted to state, that the greater part has been written and revised under circumstances the least favourable for literary composition, the result of which has been the introduction of several typo graphical errors, as well as a few mistakes of at less venial kind.
(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
