Yet I said this more out of anger, and a desire to speak in Latin of all this learning before me, than because I meant it. For if I examined something or other for a time, I was bound to confess that the author appeared to know all about it, and had even a great deal of sound argument in support of his opinions. I found in the parcel treatises and disquisitions—
On the Sanscrit, as the Mother of the Teutonic Languages;
On the Punishment of Infanticide;
On the Origin of the Nobility;
On the Difference between the Ideas : “Infinite time,” and “Eternity;”
On the Theory of Chances;
On the Book of Job—(there was something else about Job; but in verse);
On the Proteïne in the Atmospheric Air;
On Russian Politics;
On the Vowels;
On the Cellular Prisons;
On the Ancient Hypotheses;
Of the “Horror vacui;”
On the Desirableness of the Abolition of Punishments for Slander;
On the Causes of the Revolt of the Dutch against Spain, not being the Desire for Religious or Political Freedom;
