Excerpt from Memoir of Her Majesty Sophia Charlotte, of Mecklenburg Strelitz, Queen of Great Britain, &C. &C. &C: Shewing, From Faithful Representations and Authentic Documents, That Excellent Lady to Have Been Always as Eminent for Her Virtues and Accomplishments, as Illustrious by Her Birth and High Station They contemplate only Your high station, as the greatest Sovereign in the world, will find their hearts filled with reverence, and their limbs with fear and trembling; but with those who have had the Opportunity Of witnessing how graciously Your Royal Highness can temper dignity with condescension, the reverence remains the same, while the fear is converted into admiration and love. I beg leave, Sir, to lay at Your feet a faithful memoir of my Royal Patroness, the illustrious queen of these great and powerful Kingdoms. If I be charged with presumption in thus approaching Him, who acts so ably in the name and on behalf of my Sovereign, I would answer, that on such an occasion I feel I have no option. When the object in pursuit is to detail the interesting and exemplary life of the best of Mothers, to whom can I dedicate it, but to one who has proved himself the best of Sons. With profound and dutiful respect, I remain, Sir, Your Royal Highness's Most obedient and devoted Servant; W. M. Craig.
