THE RIGHT REVEREND

EDWARD COPLESTON, D.D.

LORD BISHOP OF LLANDAFF, &c. &c.

MY LORD,

THE sentiments which you are generally supposed to hold respecting the doctrine of the LATIN SUBJUNCTIVE MOOD, induce me to dedicate to Your Lordship the following Work.

As I have not the honour of being personally known to you, I have not presumed to request your permission for the step which I am now taking. It will not, therefore, be supposed, that I introduce my Work to the public under the high sanction which the authority of your name would give it.
