Chapter 147: 40. Rustician’s literary work appears from the extracts and remarks of
Chapter 148: 41. A question may still occur to an attentive reader as to the
Chapter 149: 42. In Dunlop’s History of Fiction a passage is quoted from the
Chapter 150: 353. The alleged gift to Rustician is also put forth by D’Israeli
