Scope and Contents

The edition used was probably the sixth, published in Edinburgh in 1818, but the translation omits James Gregory's preface. The manuscript also includes translations of short passages from Homer, Xenophon, and Virgil (folios 3-23). Thomas Cochrane appears to have been a pupil at Oakham House School, near Dudley.

Dates: 1832-1833.
