Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Essays and Miscellaneous Writings Mr. Sumner, who was commanded by his Majesty to edit and translate the treatise, has acquitted himself Of his task in a manner honourable to his talents and to his character. His version is not, indeed, very easy or elegant but it is entitled to the praise of clearness and fidelity. His notes abound with interesting quotations, and have the rare merit Of really elucidating the text. The preface is evidently the work Of a sensible and candid man, firm in his own religious Opinions, and tolerant towards those Of others.
