conduct of that VETERAN who, endeavouring to unite pa-
triotifm with independence, zeal with prudence, courage
with difcretion, again folicits from that Publick, for which
he has long and faithfully exercised his talents, the gene-
rous continuance of their kindness and protection. He fo-
licits and he claims it with the greater confidence, because,
through the long feries of many fucceeding years, years of
trial, peril, and difmay, he has acted a confiftent, and, he
trusts, an honourable part. He has endeavoured to demon-
ftrate his Patriotifm, his Loyalty, and his love of Learning.
In hours of danger to his Sovereign, and there have been
fuch, no factious murmurs, no querulous plans of pre-
tended Reformation have been fuffered to defile his Pages.
With refpect to his love of Learning, he may fpeak with
yet greater boldnefs. He may proudly number among his
Friends, Allies, and Correfpondents, fome of the most ex-
alted Characters in the Annals of Literature. It must be
his care and his duty to retain their welcome aid; and,
whilft Political Events, which agitate Nations, must be left
to that fuperintending Wifdom which directs and difpofes
all things, SYLVANUS URBAN concludes his customary
Addrefs with congratulations to his Countrymen, that
Science ftill reigns in our happy Ifland with unparalleled
and undiminished luftre; and with the honeft and heartfelt
prayer, that fuch her reign and the glory of England may
endure for ages!!
