The kind manner in which this honour has beenconferred, cannot fail to increase the value of theboon, and strengthen the ties of gratitude by whichI felt bound to your Royal Highness, for the flatteringnotice, and important favours, you hadpreviously been pleased to bestow upon me.
I beg to assure your Royal Highness, that itwill ever be the proudest feeling of my heart, thatmy very humble production should have been usheredinto public notice, under the auspices of a Patroness,whose exalted virtues have secured her universalesteem and respect, and made her the admiration ofthat sex, of which she is the distinguished and presidingornament.
With every sentiment of devotion, I am,
