Strana 21 - ... titles, and subsequently in the printing. In short, I humbly conceive that it would be impossible to prove the inexpediency of Mr. Collier's plan more effectually than he has himself done ; and I hope I may add, without giving offence, that, had I seen these titles under any other circumstances...
