THE Writer of the CON QUEST et
CANAAN begs leave to inform his Coun
trymen, that that Poem, after many Disappoint
ments and Delays, is in a fair Way to be present
ed to the Public. He flatters himfelf that Per
fens of Candor and Consideration will be easily
induced to believe him, when he asserts, than
the Publication was delayed, beyond his firft Ex
pectations, solely by Necessity. To trouble the
Public with an Account of the Obftru&ions fur
nifhed by the Times, to the Completion of his
Defigri, would be deemed Impertinence. It is
fufficient to observe, that it was not in his Pow
er to forefee or prevent them.
The Price at which the Book is now offered
to the Public, is a considerable Advance on that;
firft proposed. The Reasons are obvious, and i:
is imagined fufficient. The Work is enlarged,
and the Expence of Publication greatly enhanced*
Of course it is impoihble to afford it on the Terms
originally in view. The Writer therefore cannot:
but hope thatneither this Circumstance, nor th^
Delay of Publication, will difeourage the Sub
scriptions of those, whose Generosity and Re
finement inducehim to wifuth'em in the Number
of Subscribers.
