3 To blink is a term used to signify the dog’s passing by a bird without pointing at it.
4 This letter was written by a young lady on reading the former.
5 The author hath by some been represented to have made a blunder here: for Adams had indeed shown some learning (say they), perhaps all the author had; but the gentleman hath shown none, unless his approbation of Mr. Adams be such: but surely it would be preposterous in him to call it so. I have, however, notwithstanding this criticism, which I am told came from the mouth of a great orator in a public coffee-house, left this blunder as it stood in the first edition. I will not have the vanity to apply to anything in this work the observation which M. Dacier makes in her preface to her Aristophanes: Je tiens pour une maxime constante, qu’une beaute mediocre plait plus generalement qu’une beaute sans defaut. Mr. Congreve hath made such another blunder in his Love for Love, where Tattle tells Miss Prue, ‘She should admire him as much for the beauty he commends in her as if he himself was possessed of it.’
6 Whoever the reader pleases.
