Then there are a number of more or less complete manuscripts of some extent. There is the manuscript of the translation of Homer's _Iliad, in ottava rima_ (published in Venice, 1775-8); of the _Histoire de Venise_, of the _Icosameron_, a curious book published in 1787, purporting to be 'translated from English,' but really an original work of Casanova; _Philocalies sur les Sottises des Mortels_, a long manuscript never published; the sketch and beginning of _Le Polemarque, ou la Calomnie demasquee par la presence d'esprit. Tragicomedie en trois actes, composee a Dux dans le mois de Juin de l'Annee, 1791_, which recurs again under the form of the _Polemoscope: La Lorgnette menteuse ou la Calomnie demasquee_, acted before the Princess de Ligne, at her chateau at Teplitz, 1791. There is a treatise in Italian, _Delle Passioni_; there are long dialogues, such as _Le Philosophe et le Theologien_, and _Reve: Dieu-Moi_; there is the _Songe d'un Quart d'Heure_, divided into minutes; there is the very lengthy criticism of _Bernardin de Saint-Pierre_; there is the _Confutation d'une Censure indiscrete qu'on lit dans la Gazette de Iena, 19 Juin 1789_; with another large manuscript, unfortunately imperfect, first called _L'Insulte_, and then _Placet au Public_, dated 'Dux, this 2nd March, 1790,' referring to the same criticism on the _Icosameron_ and the _Fuite des Prisons_. _L'Histoire de ma Fuite des Prisons de la Republique de Venise, qu'on appelle les Plombs_, which is the first draft of the most famous part of the _Memoirs_, was published at Leipzig in 1788; and, having read it in the Marcian Library at Venice, I am not surprised to learn from this indignant document that it was printed 'under the care of a young Swiss, who had the talent to commit a hundred faults of orthography.'
