" In 1779 I wrote the History of the Family of Hutton, which slept very quietly upon my shelf for twelve years. But in 1791, when the rioters chose to amuse themselves with the destruction of every kind of property, land excepted, which I had spent threescore years in collecting, the History of my Family fell in the general ruin. I was more affected at the loss of this history than it merited; and, for seven years, endeavoured to prevail upon myself to begin another, but was never able to succeed, though solicited by friends."
"Your word''s obey''d; nay, e''en your lookWho can withstand?-Receive the book Pale as the morn ere ting''d with red, But empty, as you know whose head To sounding fame has no pretence, Spotless as virgin innocence. Must it be fill''d with dying strains? The sighs of nymphs, the vows of swains? With scandal, dress, or China ware, Chief objects of a lady''s care?"
