To RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN, Esq. M.P.
SIR,
Highly admiring that transcendent genius and ability which renders you conspicuous among the foremost characters of the age; nor less venerating that manly independence which has dignified your political career, it must be my regret, in dedicating this Work to you, that it is not more suitable to the rank of merit to which it is inscribed.
I am, SIR,
With great respect,
Your most obedient Servant,
J. T. BARBER.
Southampton-street, Strand,
London, Feb. 15, 1803.
