With respect to this Essay, compare the article "Vita," No. 12., in vol. viii. p. 360. ed. Montagu. "You shall read in some of the friars' books of mortification, that a man should think with himself what the pain is, if he have but his finger's end pressed or tortured, and thereby imagine what the pains of death are when the whole body is corrupted and dissolved."] Query, What books are here alluded to? "Pompa mortis magis terret, quam mors ipsa."] Mr. Markby thinks these words are an allusion to Sen. Ep. xxiv. 13. Something similar also occurs in Ep. xiv. 3.
