Excerpt from Otia Ægyptiaca: Discourses on Egyptian Archæology and Hieroglyphical Discoveries My avocations during the last three years have been so migratory, that the translation of Chronos, even with my Wife's effective and zealous co-operation, has not progressed as we hoped when the labor was undertaken; but, inasmuch as the hundred and forty folio pages of the English Manuscript cover the entire ground of human history, so far as modern science has resuscitated it, from primordial epochas down to the days of cyrus, I speak confidently in averring, that it would be difficult to point out a branch of this mighty theme which has escaped the venerable author's scrutinizing attention.
