PREFACE.' kvti 
Holland, England, and France, in fearch 
of knowledge. That part of his travels 
which is publifhed in Latin has many 
curious and ufeful obfervations relating to 
the purpofes of common life. Of thofe 
which are written in his own tongue i 
cannot give any other account, but that by 
fome quotations from them to be found in 
the writings of his difciples it appears, that 
they very well deferve to be communicated 
to the world in a language more generally 
underftood. 
Befides thefe labours of his own, the 
world will be one day obliged to him for 
what others have done. Incited by his 
example and perfuafion, C. Ternftrom 
went into Alia ; P. Kalmius to Penfilvania 
and Canada ; L. Montin into one part of 
Lapland; D. Selander into another; F. 
Haffelquift into AJgypt and Paleftine; G, 
Toren to Malabar and Surat ; P. Ofbech 
to China and Java ; P. Loefling to Spain and 
America ; P. J. Berg to Gothland ; M« 
Koehler to Italy and Apulia ; and D. Ro- 
lander to Surinam and St, Euftaeia; M 
a thefe
