What WILL PASS,
 
IN THE WORLD.

Translated from the original French,
With explanatory Notes.

Printed for Robert Horsfield, in
Ludgate-Street. 1761.

TO THE
 
Honble Miss ROSS.

Madam,

Upon your hearing the otherday Giphantia much praisedby some friends, and those no illjudges, you expressed a desire to seeit in English, as you had not, yousaid, French enough to read the original.I immediately resolved togratify your desire, and that veryday sat about the translation.

It is now finished: and, as myhand is not very legible, I take theliberty to address it to you in printwith this Epistle Dedicatory; which,as neither you, nor the Author,want any encomiums, nor theTranslator any excuses, I shall cutshort, and beg leave to subscribemyself with great respect and sincerity,

Madam,
Your most obedient
and most humble servant,
Feb. 5,
1761.
The Translator.
