"In whatever Light we regard the BRITISH ISLANDS,
whether as the Cradle of Liberty, the Mother of Arts and
Sciences, the Nurse of Manufactures, the Mistress of the
Sea; or whether we contemplate their genial Soil, their mild
Climate, their various natural and artificial Curiosities; we
shall find no equal Extent of Territory on the Face of the
Globe of more Importance, or containing more Attractions,
even in the Estimation of those who cannot be biassed by
native Partiality."
