Navigation etc.

To His Prussian Majesty on the occasion of his taking the reins of the throne. If this was dedicated to Frederick William II, it might have been composed for his 1786 coronation; however, the composer was then only 16 years old. The king's successor (Frederick William III) acceded 11 years later in 1797, and is a more likely candidate for the dedication.
