DG260 1869 DEDICATION MAIN MY DEAR LORD BROUGHAM, I DEDICATE this work to you as a token of our friendship, and because a Life of Cicero cannot be more appropriately inscribed than with the name of one whose eloquence and other splendid intellectual gifts, so conspicuously displayed and uniformly employed for the welfare of mankind, vividly recal to the minds of his countrymen the great Orator, Statesman, and Philosopher of ancient Rome. Superest adhuc et exornat ætatis nostræ gloriam Vir sæculorum memoriâ dignus, qui olim nominabitur nunc intelligitur." Believe me, THE FIRS, MORTIMER, Very sincerely yours, W. FORSYTH. |
