‘Concerning the River C e t t i n a , the T i e u r u s o f the /indents*
SUSPEND a while your continual and indefatigable botanical
labours, my learned and dear Friend, and travel with me
along the unfrequented banks o f a river now but little known,
though in former times the refidence of many braveand eminent
Romans. I invite you to crofs the rocky mountains, which divide
from the fea, the beautiful interior parts o f Dalmatia, at prefen t
inhabited by the Morlaochi; but your journey will be much left
fatiguing than mine. You are a lover o f every kind o f fcience,
and therefore I may flatter myfelf, that you will not read without
fome pleafure, die various details that occurred to me to
the right and left o f the Tilurus, from its fources to its
mouth; and that you will not And fault with the few digref-
fions, which the anology o f matter may occafion. I have
endeavoured not to be tedious, and I hope not unentertaining;
but i f my endeavours ihould prove unluccefsful, you can always
when you pleafe, lay a fide this letter s for I am not fo unreasonable
as to expeit, or wiih that a man o f your univerial acknowledged
merit ihould lofe his time on difagreeable or ufelefs
