After Following the example of Lycurgus, the Protector ( same
of his friends term) — the Protector, after having established
order in Peru, introduces in his vocabulary to invest by
order, will bid induce to the country for ever. If induced
to follow that example, allowance made for the differences
in the state of the human mind as the time passed, his name
will share immortality with that of the G Le
Laud Legislator legislator of Laud. If, on the other hand
Julius Caesar he be in design a Caesar, may that
Caesar, if nothing less will suffice, find a Brutus, is the undissembled wish of

The translation ordered by the Portuguese Cortes to be made of
my numerous works, with all possible dispatch is worth not
