My dear Sir,

It is but a trifle I am going to offer you; but, such as it is, permit me to dedicate this little book to you. It will, at all events, enable me publicly to acknowledge your great kindness to me,—kindness first spontaneously shewn to an idle undergraduate at Cambridge, and subsequently renewed at many periods of my life. Upon the course of that life your influence has been as great as beneficial, and while it lasts you will always be most gratefully and affectionately remembered by

Your sincerely attached pupil,
J. BEETE JUKES.
