Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Thoughts on the Effects of the British Government of the State of India: Accompanied With Hints Concerning the Means of Conveying Civil and Religious Instruction to the Natives of That Country Among the patrons of this association, so creditable to the generosity and benevolence of our native country, there appear many highly respectable names, which must afford to the public the fullest pledge that its contributions will be applied with diligence, fidelity, and zeal, in promoting the valuable ends for which they are raised. The enterprize, however, in which the British and Foreign Bible Society is engaged, will perhaps be found as difficult and arduous in its execution, as its object is laudable and important. A long and intimate acquaintance with the Oriental character and manners, must have fully apprised your Lordship, that great patience, skill, and address, are necessary to remove the inveterate prejudices of the Asiatics, to stimulate their curiosity, and to overcome their natural and habitual indolence of mind.
