He Is Thought By John Kirk To Have Studied With Alexander Pope At Twyford School, And To Have Formed A Lifelong Friendship There. He Was Admitted To Lincoln's Inn 6 February 1702. Caught Up In The South Sea Bubble, He Sought Patronage. He Dedicated To The Earl Of Oxford A Translation From The French Of Andrew Michael Ramsay's 'Life Of Fénelon' (Published In 1723), London. When Sarah Churchill, Duchess Of Marlborough Required Help With Her Memoirs, Hooke Was Recommended To Her. He Accordingly Waited Upon The Aged Duchess While She Was Still In Bed; On His Arrival She Caused Herself To Be Lifted Up, And Continued Speaking For Six Hours Without Notes. Hooke Resided In The House Until The Completion Of The Work, Which Appeared In 1742 . It Was Hooke Who Brought A Roman Catholic Priest To Take Pope's Confession On His Deathbed. Hooke Was Also Friendly With Martha Blount, Who Left A Legacy To Miss Elizabeth Hooke. William Warburton Described Hooke As "A Mystic And Quietist, And A Warm Disciple Of Fénelon". Pope Suggested That Hooke And Conyers Middleton Were The Only Two Contemporary Prose-Writers Whose Works Were Worth Consulting By An English Lexicographer. Hooke's Roman History, From The Building Of Rome To The Ruin Of The Commonwealth (Four Volumes, London, 1738–1771, 4To), Suggested Itself To Him While He Was Preparing An Index To The English Translation Of François Catrou And Pierre Julien Rouille's Roman History. The First Volume Was Dedicated To Pope, And Introduced By "Remarks On The History Of The Seven Roman Kings, Occasioned By Sir Isaac Newton's Objections To The Supposed 244 Years Of The Royal State Of Rome". The Second Volume Is Dedicated To The Earl Of Marchmont, And To It Are Annexed The Fasti Capitolini, Or The Consular Lists, Discovered At Rome During The Pontificate Of Pope Paul Iii In 1545. The Third Volume Was Printed Under Hooke's Inspection, But Was Not Published Until 1764, After His Death. The Fourth Volume Was Published In 1771, Edited By Gilbert Stuart. Other Works Are: ‘Travels Of Cyrus, With A Discourse On Mythology,’ London, 1739, Translated By Hooke From The French Of Andrew Michael Ramsay. 'Observations On—I. The Answer Of M. L'abbé De Vertot To The Late Earl Stanhope's Inquiry Concerning The Senate Of Ancient Rome, Dated December 1719. Ii. A Dissertation Upon The Constitution Of The Roman Senate, By A Gentleman; Published In 1743. Iii. A Treatise On The Roman Senate, By Dr. C. Middleton; Published In 1747. Iv. An Essay On The Roman Senate, By Dr. T. Chapman; Published In 1750,' London, 1758; Dedicated To Speaker Richard Onslow. This Work Was Answered By Edward Spelman In An Anonymous Pamphlet Entitled 'A Short Review On Mr. Hooke's Observations,' 1758. William Bowyer Published 'An Apology For Some Of Mr. Hooke's Observations Concerning The Roman Senate,' London, 1758. 'Six Letters To A Lady Of Quality … Upon The Subject Of Religious Peace And The Foundations Of It,' First Printed In 'The Contrast; Or An Antidote Against The Pernicious Principles . Chesterfield.".…
