Summary
Altho’ it will be seen, and confess’d, (notwithstanding the Sheets, which compose these Two additional Volumes, might have been easily formed into Three) how difficult it was to reduce Materials so ample within the Compass which the Editor had assigned them; yet, being unwilling to deserve a Suspicion, that the Extent of this Work was to be measur’d but by the Patience of its Readers, He thinks proper to conclude in this Place: Subjoining, in order to elucidate the Whole, a brief Note of the following Facts.
That Mr. B. continued (after the Affair that took Date at the Masquerade, and so happily concluded) to be one of the best and most exemplary of Men, an Honour to his Country, both in his publick and private Capacity, having, at the Instances of some of his Friends, in very elevated Stations, accepted of an honourable Imployment abroad in the Service of the State; which he discharged in such a manner, as might be expected from his Qualifications, and Knowlege of the World: And on his Return, after an Absence of Three Years, resisting all the Temptations of Ambition, devoted himself to his privater Duties, and join’d with his excellent Lady in every pious Wish of her Heart: Adorning the married Life with all the Warmth of an elegant Tenderness: Beloved by his Tenants, respected by his Neighbours, rever’d by his Children, and almost ador’d by the Poor, in every County where his Estates gave him Interest, as well for his own bountiful Temper, as for the Charities which he permitted to be dispensed, with so liberal a Hand, by the Representative of his Heart, his dear Lady.
That she made him the Father of Seven fine Children, Five Sons, and Two Daughters, all adorn’d and accomplish’d by Nature, to be the Joy and Delight of such Parents; being educated, in every respect, by the Rules of their inimitable Mother, in that Book which she mentions to have written for the Revisal and Correction of her Consort; the Contents of which may be gather’d from her Remarks upon Mr. Locke's Treatise of Education, in her Letters to Mr. B. and in those to Lady G.
