TO THE
KING'S
Most Excellent MAJESTY.
SIR,
YOur Majesty having graciously accepted my two late Essays, about the Cities and Hospitals of London and Paris, as also my Observations on Rome and Rouen; I do (after six Months[1] waiting for what may be said against my several Doctrines, by the able men of Europe) humbly pre-||sent Your Majesty with a few other Papers upon the same Subject, to strengthen, explain and enlarge the former; hoping by such real arguments, better to praise and magnifie Your Majesty, than by any other the most specious Words and Elogies that can be imagined by
Your Majesty's
Most Humble, Loyal
and Obedient Subject,
William Petty.
