This is not to be confounded with the Miscellanies in Prose and Verse, published by Morphew a few weeks before, and alluded to by Swift in the Journal for 28th Feb. It professed to be issued without the knowledge of the author; but it may be doubted whether Swift had not some part in the publication. 'I know nothing of it,' he says, 'it was without my knowledge or consent'; but he adds, ' Tooke pretends he knows nothing of it, but I doubt he is at the bottom.' Tooke would not have ventured such a thing without Swift's consent; and Swift was very likely to make this half-jocular mystification.
