To Dr WILLIAM CULLEN,

Sir,

An address of this nature can addnothing to your reputation. Andprofessions of gratitude are but aninadequate return for real services.When, therefore, I inscribe this performanceto you, it is neither myintention to enlarge upon your character,nor to recount the many obligationsfor which I am indebtedto you. But, as I am happy in beingfavoured with your countenance,and proud of the honour it does me,allow me to take this opportunity ofexpressing it.

As I have long since adopted thewish, permit me, on this occasion, touse the language of a celebratedEnglish Poet:

O! while along the stream of time thy name
Expanded flies and gathers all its fame;
Say, shall my little bark attendant sail,
Pursue the triumph and partake the gale?
And shall this verse to future age pretend
Thou wert my guide, philosopher, and friend?

I am SIR,

With unfeigned esteem,

And sincere regard,

Your much obliged,

And most obedient Servant,

The AUTHOR.
