to his views, I beg leave to express my
very grateful acknowledgments, by de-
dicating this Volume to YOUR ROYAL
HIGHNESS. Should it succeed in attract-
ing your notice to the present forlorn and
distracted state of Abyssinia, so far as to
induce YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESS to pro-
mote the welfare of that country, by the
introduction of useful arts together with
a judicious advancement of the true te-
nets of the Christian Religion among its
inhabitants, I shall feel that my exertions
in this cause have not been in vain; and,
in the meanwhile, as the best reward of
my labours, shall continue to look for-
ward to the consolatory hope of witness-
ing the beneficial changes which the
bounty and wisdom of YOUR ROYAL
HIGHNESS may effect in the condition of
that remote Country.
