Présentation de l'éditeur
The commencement of your Majesty sreign is full of excitement, and of hope :art, science, and literature ;trade, commerce, manufactures, and legislation, are all approaching to a fulness and an altitude which cannot fail to astonish even human wisdom. Other nations and former ages have risen to certain stages of eminence and glory, and have also sunk to ruin, and even extinction. The wars and vices of governments have led to both of those events. It is the duty of princes and legislators to profit by the lessons thus afforded, and to guard their respective states against foreign warfare and domestic disunion. The art of peace is the fostering parent of all other arts; for it nurtures and ripens the national flowers and fruits in the great garden of civilisation. It also administers to the true happiness of man; whereas war impoverishes and degrades him in all his domestic and pohtical relations. Unparalleled in the annals of Great Britain, as your Majesty saccession to the throne is, it is ardently hoped that your reign will surpass all that have preceded it in the felicities of peace and of glory. Blessed with a most exemplary parent, your Majesty has, fortunately for yourself and country, been instructed in every thing calculated to adorn the character of a Queen. In every age the possessors of empire have acquired far greater renown, both contemporary and posthumous, from patronising the talents of their subjects, and encouraging science and the fine arts, than from any other deeds.
