TO 



THE RIGHT HON. LADY ARDEN. 



Madam, 



In grateful remembrance of that goodness 



which gave the Author an opportunity of employing his talents, 

 as it were, in a new world, permit me to address this small 

 Volume to your Ladyship, as the first fruit of much labour, 

 assured, that if any degree of merit be discernible in this per- 

 formance, it will be sufficient to ensure it a favourable recep- 

 tion from your Ladyship, as has already been experienced by 

 him, who must ever remain, 



Your Ladyship's 



Most grateful humble servant, 



J. W. LE WIN.
