It is sure prising, therefore, that no Editor of so excellent and popular a work has ever thought of prefixing the Lives of the Authors to his Edition. That the reader may, whilst he is contemplating the beauties of the spec tator, have it in his power to examine the history of those to whom the beauties are owing, the Editor of this Edition has prefixed the Lives of the Authors.
