This Dictionary comprises, as equally essential, the two departments of Etymology and Explanation: the former most carefully and elaborately investigated, and

the latter founded, with equal care and labour, upon such

results as investigation may discover. This combination, unattempted in all other English Dictionaries, will, it is

hoped, entitle the book to the character of a Scholar's Manual; and at the same time, pre-eminently distinguish it as a book of common reference.

A prospectus, accompanied by a specimen, may be had (gratis) of the publisher.
