Excerpt from A Norseman's Views of Britain and the British You will, on comparison, observe that, in the language of these Letters as they now appear before you, many alterations have been effected. When I fixed my resolution to publish them in this country, it became an urgent necessity to submit them to the revision of a native pen. No man can ever judiciously pretend to write, even respectably, any but his mother tongue. I have no wish to appear before the world other than I am; and I take this opportunity of acknowledging my gratitude to the gentleman who bestowed such pains and care upon my manuscript My task of wrestling with a foreign language was, perhaps, equally difficult with his of mastering foreign views. Our conjoint labours are before you. Overlook their imperfections, and remember only, if they have any, their merits.
