It ought to be observed that there are some Passages kr, Ju- © in that Author, that make it appear, that he was des © lefs serupulous to violate the Rules of the purity of Manners, which we have received from COD himself, than to offend against those that councern the purity of the Language, which proceed — the Caprices or the Will of Men us see what Mr. er observes concerning that Book. (g) The most considerable of humor, says he, is the Decameron; having been received with applause by all Italy, it was also so far our entertains by Foreign Nations, that each would have it in their Language; and it was so much the more eagerly sought after, because some endeavours were its subjects it, and because it was Conſur d, by reason of its free and satirical Diſcourſes against the Monk. Boccacio précipit it in the Year One thousand three hundred forty-eight, in a time when the City of Florence was deleted, and almost deserted by a cruel Conjugation. It may be beheld among the finest of her writings that are made for Divergation, and that in some manner ave beth uſeful and delightful. Perrarch having read it wuer, found so many pleasant things in it, that he took the pains to translate a piece of that fine Work into Latin for his own satisfaction, which was the incredible Patience Créditus towards her hub the Marquis of Saluces. Perrarch dedicated the Latin Translation that he had made of that Story of Griélide to Beccacie, and told him, that in over the Decameres, he had observed that the Author had been obliged to reprove certain Satyriſts, that could do nothing but find fault with what they would, or could not do: Arimaduerti alcub; librum ipso centibus lacustum, tus tamen baculis egregit, quaeque defenus.

The edition of the herum, to which Francis Ancy has added a new Perch Translation of that Work with Figures, is now published at an earlier date in the Year 1697. He states that he made that Translation, owns in the Preface that he has avoided the Graces of the Original, that he has avoided them according to our fashion, that he has avoided several things, and avoided now the Repetitions, and that he has often altered the whole Periods, but also the Plan of the Work; that he has only taken the official part of the Novel, and that he has often altered the wood of the Preamble that are printed to be placed in the pagina.

And therefore these that made the Ruler of the Index, did not believe that by any positive Law it ought to be forbidden that Persons, who have Master in their Reading, to whom these Books have such more due to their Children, should read the infamens passage of Martial, Juvenal, Horace, Petronius, Apuleius, Cr. Not but that they thought, that we of those who read them did it; but because others, who are sufficiently commanded, is Virtue not to be used with these bad Ideas, and to mind only the art of the Greek and Latin Tongue, may read them innocently, it was thought expedient to keep to the Law of Nature, and to leave these things to every one's conscience, and to the Judgment of the Directors and Conscience.

The enquiries that he could make in order to compose those Works, arts and languages, and which put him upon searching into all the Ancient Authors, and to preserve the most hidden treasures of the Oriental Languages, have this relation to his being that he engrossed in them by degrees, only because he had undertaken to preach on Graces; for when he came to the second Chapter he was obliged to explain the Situation of the terrestrial Paradise: The following Chapters engrossed him to examine the Origin of Nations, and great many other passages required that he should write upon the Animals, Planes and precious Stones mentioned in the Bible. If he had lived long enough he would have a complete Treatise on those matters, but he could only finish that which concerns Animals. It was printed in London in 1664, under the title of Heri, His Collections on the Terrestrial Paradise, on Plants, and precious Jewels were not found in a condition where his death, to make anything of them.

It is a notorious thing that he did not go out of France without leave from the Court; and that it was his fault that he did not continue in his Church of Neuen, which did all they could to retain him. It is true, that in 1674, a vexatious Suit was commenced against him, occasioned by a Gentleman woman of the Protestant Religion, who — left her Father, who was a Catholic in Parliament, had fled into England; but it is also true, that after some Months Imprisonment, he was fully re-established in his former Condition.

However, Turnebus himself complains at the end of his Edition of Oppian of 1555, that his corrections on that Author had been stolen from him.

Note that Bongars's Letter quoted by Mr. Menage is to be found in the 8th and $3d. of the Gallia Oricmalis. It is dated from Franc before the 4th of April 1600. Mr. Colombe's Father received a Copy of it in the Year 1648. He that sent it him had it from Mr. Greneviss the Father, who had translated the Original at Nuremberg in the Year 1632 in the House of Miss, Rit- the Son of Conrad.
