Synopsis
Excerpt from Language: A Heaven-Born Gift
Although entitled by birth to claim the rights of an English man, yet being educated and having resided in Holland nearly all my lifetime, the English language must, in a manner, he considered a foreign tongue, an acquired language to me; your forbearance, therefore, I humbly beg; in grateful return for which I shall strain every nerve to call forth such evi deuces as words will admit and language grant success, as the subject will demand and time will allow, to substantiate facts unknown, to unveil truths seldom or never heard before.
