'i am one, ' says Defoe in the Preface, 'that would be glad to see Englishmen behave themselves better to strangers, and to governors also that one might not be reproached in foreign countries for belonging to a nation that wants manners.' The publica tion of the poem led to Defoe's introduction to William III., 'whose goodness to me, ' he says, 'i never forgot, neither can forget; whose memory I never patiently heard abused, nor ever can do so.'
