DEDICATION.
I could with equal Pleaſure dwell on thoſe amiable Virtues which adorn your private Liſe; your Generoſity, Affability, and especially your Compaſſion for thoſe brave Men who have ſhed their Blood, and loſt their Limbs in the Field of Honour. Yet as it is another ſhining Part of your Character rather to do great and good Actions than to hear of them, I reſtrain the Ardour I feel to purſue ſo agreeable a Theme, and entreat your Royal Highneſs's Permiſſion to aſſure you, with the moſt profound Reſpect, that I am
Your ROYAL HIGHNESS's
Moſt dutiful, moſt devoted,
And moſt obedient, humble Servant,
ROBERT HEATH.
