Il a paru dans ce pays, il y a déja du tems, peut-être un an, une brochure très courte, intitulée _la cassette verte_.... On ne sait si M. de Sartine en a été piqué, ou si c’est un zele de ses partisans dans ce pays; mais on mande de la Haye que le jeudi 19 de ce mois, on y a arrêté une Dame Godin, comme ayant eu quelque part à cette _cassette verte_ & qu’elle en est partie le jour même avec des gardes qui la conduisent jusqu’aux frontieres de France, d’où vraisemblement elle sera transférée à la Bastille (XV, 189). vi The Green Box of Monsieur de Sartine, Found at Mademoiselle du Thé’s Lodgings. From the French of the Hague Edition. Revised and corrected by those of Leipsic and Amsterdam. “I translate for the Country Gentlemen.” Anticipation. London: Sold by A. Becket, corner of the Adelphi, Strand; and R. Faulder, Bond-street. M DCC LXXIX. 8vo. P. [i], half-title, verso blank; p. [iii], title, verso blank; pp. [1]-4, “Advertisement”; p. [5], note by the “Editor,” verso blank; pp. [7]-71, text; p. [72], advertisement of _Anticipation_, Ninth Edition, _La Cassette verte_, and other works by Tickell. Copies: BP, HC, HEH, NYP. Sabin #95796. Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Editions, Becket and Faulder, 1779. Dublin: James Byrn and Son, 1779. Also an edition dated 1779 without place or publisher’s name and with different collation; evidently a piracy. Heartman’s Historical Series No. 19; “Sixty-five copies printed for Charles F. Heartman, New York City 1916”; this is an independent translation of _La Cassette verte_. “It now appears that this pretended English translation is the _original work_, as it came from the ludicrous pen of Mr. Tickell ...; and that the French edition ... was only a _circumstance_ in the _joke_” (_The Monthly Review_, LX, 1779, 473). A number of imitations followed _La Cassette verte_ and _The Green Box_. Among these are _An English Green Box_ ..., G. Kearsly, 1779; _Histoire d’un pou françois_ ..., “A Paris, de l’Imprimerie Royale,” 1779, and the English version of the latter, _History of a French Louse_ ..., T. Becket, 1779—all of which have been erroneously ascribed to Tickell. vii Epistle from the Honourable Charles Fox, Partridge-Shooting, to the Honourable John Townshend, Cruising. London: Printed for R. Faulder, New Bond Street. M DCC LXXIX. 4to. P. [1], half-title, verso blank; p. [3], title, verso blank; pp. [5]-14, text; pp. [15-16], blank. Copies: BM, HC. Sabin #95795.
