Excerpt from Chinese Classical Work Commonly Called the Four Books: Translated, and Illustrated With Notes
The following Version of the Four Books was undertaken, in the first instance, for the purpose of acquiring some knowledge of the Chinese Language. After the whole had been written, it occurred to the Translator, that if carefully revised and illustrated by quotations from the most approved Comments, and by occasional remarks on the fundamental errors in religion and morals, which, in too many instances, the work discovers, it might perhaps be of some use to the Chinese who study English in the College, not only by assisting them in acquiring the English Language, but especially in leading them to reflect seriously on some of the fatal errors propagated by their most celebrated sages. This circumstance forms the only apology which the Translator can offer for the frequent repetition of what must, to the European reader, appear common place remarks, but which it is hoped, may, by the divine blessing, prove useful to some of the deluded heathen who read the translation.
