Excerpt from The Constitutional History of England From the Accession of Henry VII to the Death of George II, Vol. 1 of 3 In terminating the Constitutional History of England at the accession of George III. I have been influenced by unwillingness to excite the prejudices of modern politics, especially those connected with personal cha racter, which extend back through at least a large portion of that reign. It 18 indeed vain to expect that any com prehensive account of the two preceding centuries can be given without risking the disapprobation of those parties, religious or political, which originated during that period; but as I shall hardly incur the imputation of being the blind zealot of any of these, I have little to fear, in this respect, from the dispassionate' public, whose favour, both' in this country and on the con tinent, has been bestowed on my former work, with a 'liberality less due to any literary merit it may possess than to a regard for truth, which will, I trust, be found equally characteristic of the present.
