Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. Jonathan Swift, D. D., Dean of St. Patrick's, Dublin, Vol. 7 of 24: Arranged by Thomas Sheridan, A. M., With Notes, Historical and Critical His earnestness to communicate this history to the public is evident in many of his letters. In 1736, it was actually intended for the press; and in April, 1738, the Dean expressed his dissatisfaction at the publication being so long delayed. Whatever motives might have then existed for such delay, whether tenderness to living characters, or more prudential reasons, a period of forty years must totally have removed them. The rage of party is subsided; and we may be allowed to contemplate the reign of Anne as impartially as that of Elizabeth.
