To the Right Honourable Mr. PITT SIR, Never poor Wight of a Dedicator had less hopes from his Dedication than I have from this of mine; for it is written in a bye corner of the kingdom, and in a retired thatched house, where I live in a constant endeavour to fence against the infirmities of ill health, and other evils of life, by mirth; being firmly persuaded that every time a man smiles,----- but much more so, when he laughs, that it adds something to this Fragment of Life. I humbly beg, Sir, that you will honour this book by taking it----(not under your Protection,-----it must protect itself, but)-----into the country with you; where, if I am ever told it has made you smile, or can conceive it has beguiled you of one moment's pain------I shall think myself as happy as a minister of state;--------perhaps much happier than any one (one only excepted) that I have ever read or heard of. I am, great Sir (and what is more to your Honour), I am, good Sir, Your Well-wisher, and most humble F . . .
