DEDICATION.



TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF YORK.


SIR,

WITH the design of serving an amiable and worthy man, I haveavailed myself of your Royal Highness's permission to dedicate to youthe translation of a work, which, as a faithful narrative of events,wants no additional comment to make it interesting. A detail offacts, in which your Royal Highness, in behalf of your country, hasbeen so honourably engaged, may not prove unwelcome in aid ofrecollection; and a detail of facts, built on the experimentalhorrors of popular power, and which, proceeding from the wildness oftheory to the madness of practice, has swept away every vestige ofcivil polity, and would soon leave neither law nor religion in theworld, cannot, either in point of instruction or warning, beunreasonably laid before my fellow-citizens at large.

Under the sanction, therefore, Sir, of your illustrious name, Iwillingly commit to them this memorial. And if an innocent victimof oppression should thus derive a small, though painful,subsistence from a plain and publick (sic) recital of his country'scrimes, I shall be abundantly repaid for the little share I may havehad in bringing it into notice; and by the opportunity it affords meof subscribing myself

Your ever grateful and devoted humble servant,

FRANCIS RANDOLPH.

BATH, July 22, 1796
