Beskrivelse: "An author ought to consider himself, not as a gentleman who gives a private or eleemosynary treat, but rather as onewho keeps a public ordinary, at which all persons are welcome for their money. In the former case, it is well known thatthe entertainer provides what fare he pleases; and though this should be very indifferent, and utterly disagreeable to thetaste of his company, they must not find any fault; nay, on the contrary, good breeding forces them outwardly toapprove and to commend whatever is set before them. Now the contrary of this happens to the master of an ordinary.Men who pay for what they eat will insist on gratifying their palates, however nice and whimsical these may prove; and ifeverything is not agreeable to their taste, will challenge a right to censure, to abuse, and to d-n their dinner withoutcontroul.To prevent, therefore, giving offence to their customers by any such disappointment, it hath been usual with thehonest and well-meaning host to provide a bill of fare which all persons may peruse at their first entrance into the house;and having thence acquainted themselves with the entertainment which they may expect, may either stay and regale withwhat is provided for them, or may depart to some other ordinary better accommodated to their taste.As we do not disdain to borrow wit or wisdom from any man who is capable of lending us either, we havecondescended to take a hint from these honest victuallers, and shall prefix not only a general bill of fare to our wholeentertainment, but shall likewise give the reader particular bills to every course which is to be served up in this and theensuing volumes."
