TO 
HIS MAJESTY 
KING GEORGE THE FOURTH. 
May it please Your Majesty; 
I humbly hope that a faithful account 
of barbarous countries suffering under slavery 
and superstition may be no unwelcome offer¬ 
ing to the Sovereign of the greatest of free 
nations. In contemplating the unhappy lot 
of Tyrants, debased and corrupted by the ab¬ 
solute power which they are doomed to exer¬ 
cise, your Majesty may see new reason to 
be gratified with that constitutional exertion 
of authority by which you redress the griev¬ 
ances of your subjects, and enlarge the fabric 
of civil and religious liberty, for the preser¬ 
vation of which the illustrious House of 
Brunswick was called to the Throne of 
Great Britain,
