TO THE RIGHT REV. FATHER IN GOD JONATHAN, LORD BISHOP OF ST. ASAPH, WHO, IN A LEARNED, FREE, AND LIBERAL AGE, IS HIMSELF MOST HIGHLY DISTINGUISHED BY EXTENSIVE, USEFUL, AND ELEGANT LEARNING, BY A DISINTERESTED SUPPORT OF FREEDOM, AND BY A TRULY CHRISTIAN LIBERALITY OF MIND, THIS POEM, WITH ALL RESPECT, IS DEDICATED BY HIS LORDSHIP'S MOST OBLIGED AND MOST OBEDIENT SERVANT, THE AUTHOR. Jan. 1788.
