| Evidence: | '[EDITOR'S WORDS] The same enlightened judgment [of a friend] which had protected "The Rajah", gave its sanction to "The Modern Philosophers", notwithstanding the objections of the too scrupulous author. Experience justified the decision: the work appeared early in 1800, and passed through two editions before the end of the year'. |
