De Menagio causa est, cur glorientur Galli. Certe fuit Vir magnus & Etymologus non unus e multis. Eo pervenit quo potuit Gallus etymologus sine Aquilonaribus literis pervenire. Ad hunc Auctor noster sæpe Lectorem mittit, & Skinnerus etiam se ei plurimum fatetur debere. ([Gilles] Ménage is the reason why the French may boast. Certainly he was a great man, and an etymologist not merely one among many. He reached as far as a French etymologist could reach without knowledge of the northern languages. To him our author frequently refers the reader, and even [Stephen] Skinner acknowledges that he owes a great deal to him.) [1988, Daisuke Nagashima, Johnson the Philologist, page 182:]
