"_Imp_" (Vol. viii., p. 623.).--Perhaps as amusing use of the word _imp_
as can be found anywhere occurs in an old Bacon, in his "Pathway unto
Prayer" (see _Early Writings_, Parker Society, p. 187.):
"Let us pray for the preservation of the King's most excellent
Majesty, and for the prosperous success of his entirely beloved
son Edward our Prince, that most _angelic imp_."
