THE PREFACE
<p><i>IF ever the story of any private Man's Adventures in
the World were worth making Publik, and were accept-
able when Publish'd, the Editor of this Account thinks
this will be so.</i>
<p><i>The Wonders of this Man's Life exceed all that
(he thinks)is to be found extant; the Life of one Man
being scarce capable of a greater Variety.</i>
<p><i>The Story is told with Modesty, with Seriousness, and
with a religious Application of Events to the Uses to
which wise Men always apply them</i> (viz.) <i>to the Instruc-
tion of others by this Example, and tojustify and honour
the Wisdom of Providence in all the Variety of our
Circumstances, let them happen how they will.</i>
