TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE.
With all the attention I have been able to bestow, and the care I have exercised to avoid error, I am not sanguine enough to suppose that future inquirers will not detect blemishes and mistakes in my translation and remarks; yet, if I shall have succeeded in any degree in throwing light on the workings of the human mind, and on the history of a sect interesting in itself, but especially so in its relation to Buddhism, I shall not consider my labour lost.
