Présentation de l'éditeur

A a SIR, As the friend of my youth, as the patron of my early ei Sbrts in an arduous profession, as one to the stores of whose mind I have been so much indebted for the improvement of my own, whose uniform kindness and attention are deeply engraven on my heart, to you, I presume to dedicate my first literary work. As the hope of your approbation has alwajs been a great stimulus to my exertions, the possessing it in this instance will not be the least of my rewards. The generality of princes and nobles, if they were stripped of their purple and of their titles, and cast naked into the world, would immediately sink to the lowest state of society, without a hope of emerging from their obscurity. But your personal merit is independent of your fortune.
