shall henceforth think fit to confer on those of his unbjects who shall
have appeared worthy of them, shall be personal, and not go

ricans, with whom they now carry on a trade far more
extensive than is imagined ; and they estimate that the
Islanders, even in their present state of civilization, will
require articles from this country to the amount of more
than 100,0001. annually.

But two physicians, like a pair of oars,
Conduct you safest to the Stygian shores!"
