PREFACE
91/163

Dr.Adam says, in the "Preface to the Fourth Edition" of his Grammar, "The first complete edition of Despauter's Grammar was printed at Cologne, anno 1522; his _Syntax_ had been published anno 1509." G.
Brown's copy is a "complete edition," printed partly in 1517, and partly in 1518.
DEVIS, ELLEN; E.Gram.; 18mo, pp.

130: London and Dublin; 1st Ed., 1777; 17th Ed., 1825.

[Fist] Devis's Grammar, spoken of in D.Blair's Preface, as being too "comprehensive and minute," is doubtless an other and much larger work.
