DEDICATION.

TO

HIS MAJESTY,

THE KING OF HANOVER.

SIRE,

The sentiments which impelled me to dedicate this volume to your Majesty, as a tribute of my grateful devotion, have, if possible, been deepened by the gracious expressions in which your Majesty has signified your acceptance of the dedicationexpressions which can never be effaced from my memory, or my heart.

I am sensible of the many defects of the book, but I feel persuaded that, whatever may be its imperfections, your Majesty will look with

indulgence on a work which, while it appears under the august protection of your Majesty's name, aims to promote the service and exalt the works of the KING OF KINGS.

I have the honour to be,

SIRE,
Your Majesty's most humble,

and most devoted Servant,

STEPHEN WATSON FULLOM.
