Printed for JOHN BELL, near Exeter-Exchange, in the MDCCLXXIII. Malone J. 397. 25 DEDICATION. ΤΟ DAVID GARRICK, Esq; SIR, T IT is matter of great doubt whether any dedicatory addrefs was ever freer from taint of flattery, than the prefent; if we pronounce you the best illuftrator of, and the best living comment on, SHAKESPEARE, that ever has appeared, or poffibly ever will grace the British stage, it is merely echoing the public voice, and concurring with that unparalleled unanimity of praife, which, during fo long a course of years, hath attended your incomparable merit. |
