  <dc:title>To Mr William Cameron, Glenmuick, from Aberdeen</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Thanks for genteel and valuable present [unspecified]. Addison's prose is better than his poetry. Cato and Drummer good. Translation of Homer poor and unworthy of Addison. Cameron's studies: 'Study classics day and night'. Improve English style. Scotsmen find it difficult to get rid of native barbarism. Asks Cameron to let him know if he has got copies of both parts of Minstrel. Two editions of second part of Minstrel already sold, and third on sale.</dc:description>
