but_o that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o book_n some_o word_n ordinary_a and_o trite_a enough_o for_o i_o think_v it_o better_o in_o such_o a_o case_n as_o this_o rather_o to_o exceed_v then_o to_o be_v too_o spare_v since_o a_o exuberance_n be_v easy_o cut_v off_o then_o a_o defect_n supply_v i_o have_v think_v once_o to_o have_v omit_v this_o branch_n of_o our_o follow_a work_n as_o have_v be_v perform_v by_o other_o before_o and_o that_o not_o without_o some_o diligence_n but_o i_o think_v it_o not_o enough_o to_o have_v add_v many_o more_o thing_n than_o be_v yet_o ever_o think_v on_o but_o also_o to_o have_v the_o quintessence_n of_o what_o ever_o be_v offer_v at_o before_o in_o another_o cast_n and_o better_a method_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o complete_a work_n and_o not_o want_v in_o any_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v desire_v in_o a_o design_n so_o useful_a to_o the_o nation_n beside_o that_o even_o of_o these_o sort_n of_o word_n there_o be_v many_o want_v before_o which_o be_v requisite_a to_o be_v insert_v many_o not_o so_o proper_o render_v as_o be_v convenient_a divers_a cram_a in_o by_o the_o head_n and_o shoulder_n without_o any_o distinction_n but_o as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v as_o good_a as_o the_o best_a whereas_o in_o work_n of_o this_o nature_n man_n ought_v to_o fly_v all_o pedantisme_n and_o not_o rash_o to_o use_v all_o word_n alike_o that_o be_v meet_v with_o in_o every_o english_a writer_n whether_o authentic_a or_o not_o this_o be_v a_o bad_a example_n to_o the_o unadmonish_v reader_n and_o may_v encourage_v he_o to_o suck_v in_o barbarism_n as_o soon_o as_o elegance_n but_o by_o long_a experience_n out_o of_o a_o continue_a course_n of_o read_v the_o best_a author_n and_o conversation_n with_o the_o better_a sort_n of_o company_n to_o examine_v thorough_o what_o word_n be_v natural_a and_o legitimate_a and_o what_o spurious_a and_o force_v nor_o be_v it_o proper_a to_o quote_v a_o author_n for_o a_o word_n that_o long_o custom_n have_v sufficient_o authorise_a but_o either_o such_o as_o be_v grow_v out_o of_o use_n or_o such_o as_o be_v use_v only_o upon_o special_a occasion_n or_o as_o term_n of_o art_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o credit_n of_o every_o one_o neither_o nor_o to_o quote_v any_o modern_a or_o trivial_a author_n for_o word_n use_v by_o those_o more_o ancient_a or_o of_o great_a credit_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v indeed_o but_o that_o there_o be_v many_o word_n in_o this_o book_n though_o few_o than_o in_o other_o book_n of_o this_o kind_n which_o i_o will_v not_o recommend_v to_o any_o for_o the_o purity_n or_o reputation_n of_o they_o but_o this_o i_o have_v not_o do_v but_o to_o please_v all_o humour_n know_v that_o such_o kind_n of_o word_n be_v write_v &_o that_o the_o undistinguish_a sort_n of_o reader_n will_v take_v it_o very_o ill_o if_o they_o be_v not_o explain_v but_o withal_o i_o have_v set_v my_o mark_n upon_o they_o that_o he_o that_o study_v a_o natural_a and_o unaffected_a stile_n may_v take_v notice_n of_o they_o to_o beware_v of_o they_o either_o in_o discourse_n or_o write_v and_o if_o any_o of_o they_o may_v have_v chance_v to_o have_v escape_v the_o obelisck_n as_o such_o a_o thing_n may_v happen_v in_o spite_n of_o diligence_n there_o can_v arise_v no_o other_o inconvenience_n from_o it_o but_o a_o occasion_n to_o exercise_v the_o choice_n and_o
