At first sight the Oriental rhetoric does not please our Western taste . " Francis Gladwin translated several of the Oriental writers and wrote a "History of Hindostan." In addition to his numerous translations he also produces several vocabularies and grammatical works including a Persian-Hindustani-English dictionary which was published in 1809.
