If this Tract should so far interest your Lordship as to induce you to peruse it, I do not doubt that it will be thoughtfully and candidly judged by you; in which case I fear no censure, but that which every man is liable to who, with good intentions, may have occasionally fallen into error; while at the same time I have an entire confidence that the principles which I have endeavoured to uphold must have the sanction of a mind distinguished, like that of your Lordship, for regard to morality and religion, and the true dignity and honour of your country.
* * * * * May I beg of your Lordship to present my respectful compliments to Lady Lonsdale.
I have the honour to be, my Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient servant, W.WORDSWORTH.[61] [60] _Memoirs_, i.
