Scope and Content

Wilberforce, writing in the third person, returns ‘another proof’ of his Practical View of the prevailing religious System of professed Christians (1797) to his publishers, but has spotted an error in earlier sheets. ‘He forgot to strike out a note at some little distance back[...] containing these words – “of true Love it may be affirmed as of Eloquence materia alitur, motibus excitatur &c &c” – If it be not too late, Mr W– will thank Messrs C. & D. if they will expunge the note’. The change is not worth reprinting the whole run for, ‘but if a few copies of that sheet only are struck off. Mr W- begs Messrs C. & D. will stop the farther impressions of that sheet, & send him word how many have been struck off’, so that he may decide how to proceed.
