TWELFTH LETTER * OF BISHOP SWEDBERG TO
JOHAN ROSENADLER .
Well-born Secretary,
Most honoured Brother,
I thank you most heartily for the great trouble
you have taken in examining my humble books. I shall
never forget to manifest my gratitude when opportunity offers.
I am sending now to Upsal, and afterwards to you, my
Swedish Lexicon, submitting it to yourjudgment. Its publication
might be useful. But I have so much to print here in Skara,
that my old age does not suffice for that, and still less for this
Lexicon. I have also ready a Latin-Swedish, and a Swedish
Latin Dictionary; which it is very necessary should see the
light. Each of these volumes will make a legal octavo.
Perhaps some printer in Stockholm will take upon himselfthe
responsibility of printing them . He would soon reimburse himself.
I send back the first sheet of my Swedish Grammar, and
I have asked Magister Scarin to send me one or two sheets
more, that I may see whether he has adhered to my orthography.
Ι
The passages you pointed out, in my letter in the Grammar,
I have taken into consideration and made milder. You employ
your office to correct what ought to be corrected. Two
pair of eyes can see more than one pair, however sharp they
may be. Please recommend the work in your official approval,
as I have asked before.
Remember me and my wife kindly to sister Brita and the
other members of your family.
Commending you to God, I am
Your most dutiful and obedient servant,
JESPERUS SWEDBERG .
Brunsbo, April, 4. 1722.
