Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Works of Jonathan Swift, Vol. 5 of 19: Dean of St. Patrick's, Dublin; Containing Additional Letters, Tracts, and Poems Not Hitherto Published; With Notes and a Life of the Author

Having written the following History at Windsor, in the happy reign of her majesty Queen Anne, of ever glorious, blessed, and immortal memory, I resolved to publish it, for the satisfaction of my fellow-subjects, in the year 1713; being under a necessity of going to Ireland, to take possession of the dea'nery of St. Patrick's, Dublin, I left the original with the ministers, and having staid in that kingdom not above a fortnight, I found, at my return, that my Lord-treasurer Oxford, and the secretary my Lord Bolingbroke, who were then unhappily upon very ill terms with each other, could not agree upon publishing it, without some alterations which I would not submit to. Where upon I kept it by me until her majesty's death, which happened about a year after.

I have ever since preserved the original very safely, too well knowing what a turn the world would take, upon the German family's succeeding to the crown; which, indeed, was their undoubted right, having been established solemnly by the act of an undisputed parliament, brought into the House of Commons by M r. Harley, who was then speaker.
