pr<strong>of</strong>essorship from <strong>the</strong> Synod <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> German Reformed <strong>Church</strong> in <strong>the</strong><br />

United States, and I have never regretted accepting it. For it is a great<br />

privilege to labor, however humbly, for <strong>the</strong> kingdom <strong>of</strong> Christ in America,<br />

which celebrates in this month, with <strong>the</strong> whole civilized world, <strong>the</strong> fourth<br />

centennial <strong>of</strong> its discovery.<br />

Thankful for <strong>the</strong> past, I look hopefully to <strong>the</strong> future.<br />

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.<br />

The first edition (<strong>of</strong> 1500 copies) being exhausted, I have examined <strong>the</strong><br />

volume and corrected a number <strong>of</strong> typographical errors, mostly in <strong>the</strong><br />

French words <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> last chapters. There was no occasion for o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

improvements.<br />

P. S.<br />
