An epistle to a certain dean
By: written originally in Italian, by Carlo Monte Socio, fellow of the Academy of the Humoristi in Rome and translated from the Vatican manuscript. By a student in philosophy ... London: Printed
Published: 1730
Place of publication: Dublin
Language: eng
Notes: The dean is identified as Swift in Teerink 1300, probably wrongly; he is identified as "C----e", probably Henry Clarke, in the piece itself. Cf. Foxon E386.

The pseudonym was apparently invented by Charles Gildon, who did not, however, write the present piece.

In verse.
