Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays of Elia and Eliana, Vol. 2: With a Memoir
His poor gentleman, who for some months past had been in a declining way, hath at length paid his final tribute to nature. To say truth, it is time he were gone. The humour of the thing, if ever there was much in it, was pretty well exhausted and a two years' and a half existence has been a tolerable duration for a phantom.
