This was accordingly done, in the year 1772. Poor Poland was unable to resist the three great powers around her, and the other kings of Europe, who had been greedily annexing land wherever they could get it, stood by without a protest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
