Ebook The Mahávansi, the Rájá-Ratnácari, and the Rájávali

I have the honour, at the request Of Mr. Upham, to enclose to you a letter from him soliciting the patronage of your honourable court to an English translation which he is about to publish of the three works called the Mahavansi, the Rajavali, and the Rajératnacari. The first is written in the Pali, and the other two in the Singhalese language, and they are all three explanatory of the origin, doctrines, and introduction into the island of Ceylon, of the Buddhist religion.
