DR. WHICHCOTE, MICHAEL AYNSWORTH, AND LORD SHAFTESBURY.

Not less remarkable and interesting than the publication of Dr.
Whichcote's Sermons by the noble author of the _Characteristics_, is a
posthumous volume (though never designed for the press) under the
following title:--

"Several Letters written by a Noble Lord to a Young Man at the
University.

"Quo semel est imbuta recens servabit odorem Testa diu.--_Hor.
Epist._ ii. 1.

"Printed for J. Roberts, near the Oxford Arms, in Warwick Lane,
1716. 8vo."

afterwards vicar of Cornhampton, in Hampshire, and master of the Free
School there. He was a native of Dorsetshire; his father, who was in
narrow circumstances, living near Wimborne St. Giles's, the seat of Lord
Shaftesbury, by whom the son seems to have been nobly patronised, on
account of his inclination to learning and virtuous disposition.

manuscript transcript of _fifteen_, made fro
