I have to acknowledge, with thanks to Messrs. Longmans, Green and
Co., leave to reprint the letter to Buckingham, given on p. 25 of
this book, from the edition of the Works of Francis Bacon (edited
by Ellis Spedding and Heath); to Professor Firth and the Clarendon
Press, Oxford, leave to reprint the passage from Ludlow's "Memoirs,"
given on p. 80 of this book; and to Professor Firth, leave to reprint
the passage from his edition of the "Clarke Papers," given on pp.
81-84. These passages add very greatly to any value which the book
may possess, and I am most grateful for permission to use them.
