Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Sir Thomas Browne, Vol. 1 Nothing now remains but to express my sense of obligation to the kindness of numerous friends who have rendered me advice, assistance, and encouragement. To enumerate them, were it possible to do so without omission after such a. Lapse of years might have rather the appearance Of parade than of gratitude while a solitary omission would expose me to the mortifying and undeserved imputation Of ingratitude. I shall therefore name but one, - to whom indeed both the first and the last place may be fairly said to belong - and through whose introduction the far greater number of my other literary obligations have been incurred. I mean my kind friend Thomas Amyot, Esq, who from the very commencement of my undertaking to its comple tion, has rendered me, in every possible way, and with an unsparing munificence of time, labour, and patience, his own various aid, and has ever been prompt to Obtain for me, among his extensive acquaintance, the help Of others. To him, and to every other individual from whom I have received the smallest particle of assistance, I beg to offer my most cordial thanks.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Thomas Browne Sir Thomas Browne has been particularly fortunate in his editors, but there are two among them whose names can never be mentioned by his admirers without gratitude. Each had something of the spirit and the temperament of Browne himself. Simon Wilkin (1790-1862) was a paper-maker and then a printer in Norwich. His tastes were those of a naturalist and an antiquary, and about 1823 he was attracted to the writings of the great local celebrity. He found them in confusion, and he presently began to entertain the idea of collecting and editing them. This task, in the course of twelve years, he accomplished with the help of Thomas Amyot (1775-1850), another enthusiastic Norwich antiquary. Wilkin's edition, in four volumes, appeared in 1835-36, and few English classics have been more admirably presented to the public. The other great benefactor to the lovers of Sir Thomas Browne is William Alexander Greenhill (1814- 1894), who was a physician and a scholar, like Browne himself. Greenhill, an Oxford man, who had been the friend of Newman and Clough, Jowett and Stanley, settled at Hastings in 1851, and soon afterwards began to devote himself to the elucidation of Browne's text. For this kind of work he had nothing less than genius. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In order subsequently to disgorge the contents, in feeding their young, they have only to press the pouch on their breast. This operation may very probably have given rise to the fable, that the pelican Opens her breast to nourish her young.
