| Item Description: | "The copy in the Library of the College of physicians has inserted a suppressed 'Preface', which is paged iii-vi., and begins 'It was neither thirst after gain, nor the desire of applause, but the welfare of mankind alone, which excited me to publish this essay'. The published preface is entirely re-written and in much better taste. The same institution possesses the original manuscript."--Hildeburn, A century of printing. Microfilm.
