••• Many .purioui and mutilated Editions of thii Work
being now in Circulation copied from the olde,t and most im-
perfect Editions (Published above Thirty Years since), and
with pretended Improvements, Dr Buchan thinks it his Duty
to put the Public on their Guard against these Impositions, in-
tended to take in the Unwary, and to injure the Author's Repu-
tation, by making him responsible for their Errors and De-
fects. In this E ghtessith Edition, he has eensiderahly en-
larged every Chapter, end introduced above an Hundred Pare
tit...signal Matter on a Variety of new and intervening Sub-
ject., the Resell of his Practice and Esperimee, which he
hopes will render the Work more conducive te the great Per-
poems of general and useful Intimate:ie.
