and_o how_o great_a a_o master_n our_o author_n be_v in_o this_o art_n may_v easy_o appear_v from_o that_o clearness_n of_o method_n argument_n and_o demonstration_n which_o be_v so_o conspicuous_a

and_o for_o a_o further_a confirmation_n of_o my_o belief_n the_o reader_n may_v note_v that_o since_o this_o his_o book_n of_o logic_n be_v first_o print_v there_o have_v not_o be_v less_o than_o ten_o thousand_o sell_v and_o that_o it_o be_v like_a to_o continue_v both_o to_o discover_v truth_n and_o to_o clear_v and_o confirm_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o unborn_a world_n it_o will_v easy_o be_v believe_v that_o his_o former_a stand_n for_o a_o proctor_n place_n and_o be_v disappoint_v must_v prove_v much_o displease_v to_o a_o man_n of_o his_o great_a wisdom_n and_o modesty_n and_o

and_o prudence_n and_o his_o behaviour_n at_o the_o former_a election_n have_v get_v for_o he_o so_o great_a and_o so_o general_a a_o love_n that_o all_o his_o former_a opposer_n repent_v what_o they_o have_v do_v and_o therefore_o persuade_v he_o to_o venture_v to_o stand_v a_o second_o time_n and_o upon_o these_o and_o other_o like_a encouragement_n he_o do_v again_o but_o not_o without_o a_o inward_a unwillingness_n yield_v up_o his_o own_o reason_n to_o they_o and_o promise_v to_o stand_v and_o he_o do_v so_o and_o be_v the_o ten_o of_o april_n 1616._o choose_a senior_n proctor_n
