THE MYSTERY

OF

FRANCIS BACON

 

BY

WILLIAM T. SMEDLEY.

 

Ad D.B.

"Si bene qui latuit, bene vixit, tu bene vivis:          
Ingeniumque tuum grande latendo patet."
John Owen's Epigrammatum, 1612.

 

LONDON:
ROBERT BANKS & SON,
RACQUET COURT, FLEET STREET E.C.

1912.


 

"But such is the infelicity and unhappy disposition of the human mind in the course of invention that it first distrusts and then despises itself: first will not believe that any such thing can be found out; and when it is found out, cannot understand how the world should have missed it so long."

—"Novum Organum," Chap. CX.
