Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Inaugural Address: Delivered in the Theatre of the Islington Literary and Scientific Society, on the Opening of the New Building, Thursday, Nov 16, 1837 If I had consulted my own feelings, without adverting to any other consideration, I should at once have declined the arduous although honorable task of addressing you from this place, and upon this occasion. Prone from natural disposition to retirement rather than to public display - belonging to a profession whose studies and active pursuits afford little leisure for the investigations of general science, or the cultivation of elegant literature - surrounded with other engagements, which allowed but a scanty measure of time for preparation, it would have relieved me from no small degree of embarrassment, if the duty had fallen upon some one more competent to discharge it.
