Excerpt from A Compendium of English Literature, Chronologically Arranged, From Sir John Mandeville to William Cowper: Consisting of Biographical Sketches of the Authors, Selections From Their Works, With Notes, Explanatory, Illustrative, and Directing to the Best Editions and to Various Criticisms

First. There are in this edition, numerically, seventy-six more pages than in the first; but owing to a trifling enlargement of the page, and to the notes being printed in a smaller type, there are, at least, one hundred and fifty more pages of the same size and type as the first edition. Yet for all this, no advance in the price is contemplated by the publishers.
