The last edition of Bishop Middleton's work on the Greek Article (published in 1828) being exhausted, application has been made to me to superintend a new edition, with such additions as I should judge advisable. Having long felt the highest veneration for Bishop Middleton's character and abilities, I heartily rejoice at finding any opportunity of testifying my feelings towards him, and regret only that my powers second my inclinations so ill, that any thing which I can add to a work of his must be so unworthy of it and of him.<br><br>I wish to say a few words on the work itself, and then to state what I have endeavoured to do in the present edition.<br><br>The Inquiry into the Greek Article is a work to which sufficient justice has not been done in this country.
