Allen's request. W.
^ The printing his Letters by subscription. W.
Digitized by Googk MR. ALLEN. 291 LETTER II.
FROM THE SAME.
Southampton, June 5, 1736.
I NEED not say I thank you for a Letter, which proves so much friendship for me. I have much more to say upon it than I can, till we meet. But in a word, I think your notion of the value of those things^ is greatly too high, as to any service they can do to the public ; and, as to any advantage they may do to my own character, I ought to be co...ntent with what they have done already. I assure you, I do not think it the least of those advantages that they have occasioned me the good will (in so great a de- gree) of so worthy a man^. I fear (as I must rather retrench than add to their number, unless I would publish my own commendations) that the common run of subscribers would think themselves injured by not having every thing, which discretion must sup- press ; and this, they (without any other considera- tion than as buyers of a book) would call giving them an imperfect Collection : whereas the only use to my own character, as an Author, of such a publication, would be the suppression of many things : and as to my character as a Man, it would be but just where • Hi8 Letters.
