Contemplated in a proper point of view, the picture here given
will be found not less exhilarating than correct. Had the mischief
been throughout the work of uncontroulable nature, all remedy relief would
have been hopeless, patience the sole resource resignation the only course: being as it will
be found to be, in by far the largest proportion the work of human
industry, relief is within reach: what that which industry has accumulated
industry may remove it may be an power of industry to remove
industry, better directed, may remove.

Two tasks, two tasks will occupy find employment for the ensuing pages:
to display the disease mischief, and to point out the remedy: to paint the mischief,
to depict by depicting the system throughout, displaying on one side the work
of men, on the other the work of miserable nature. The disease once
understood, the remedy will be so obvious and its efficacy so assured, that the exhibition of it
may almost be charged with superfluity thought superfluous.
