dijs_fw-la gentium_fw-la and_o among_o the_o ancient_n by_o phurnutus_n and_o palaephatus_n profess_o their_o oracle_n i_o have_v already_o mention_v for_o their_o oneirocritick_n there_o be_v

in_o these_o study_n which_o be_v at_o present_a my_o uttermost_a design_n xi_o but_o the_o way_n for_o avoid_v confusion_n and_o distraction_n in_o such_o a_o variety_n of_o they_o which_o will_v belong_v to_o the_o four_o particular_a of_o my_o propound_a method_n will_v be_v to_o show_v which_o of_o they_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o be_v study_v at_o the_o same_o time_n but_o in_o order_n and_o for_o they_o which_o be_v so_o what_o time_n distinct_o be_v most_o seasonable_a for_o the_o former_a you_o may_v from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v perceive_v what_o study_n be_v requisite_a for_o other_o and_o therefore_o necessary_a to_o be_v first_o prosecute_v and_o beside_o what_o be_v more_o necessary_a for_o your_o present_a use_n and_o what_o may_v as_o yet_o be_v more_o convenient_o omit_v only_o it_o be_v well_o you_o will_v endeavour_v to_o overcome_v the_o rudiment_n of_o whatever_o you_o design_v as_o soon_o as_o you_o can_v though_o they_o be_v not_o of_o present_a use_n for_o you_o will_v find_v they_o more_o tiresome_a when_o you_o be_v old_a of_o these_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v unnecessary_a to_o speak_v any_o more_o that_o therefore_o in_o those_o that_o be_v at_o present_a to_o be_v follow_v you_o may_v avoid_v distraction_n and_o yet_o loose_a as_o little_a time_n as_o be_v possible_a you_o may_v distinguish_v they_o into_o such_o as_o be_v more_o easy_o apprehend_v and_o entertain_v with_o more_o present_a and_o sensible_a pleasure_n and_o so_o leave_v a_o more_o tenacious_a impression_n on_o the_o memory_n and_o these_o you_o may_v apply_v yourself_o to_o immediate_o after_o your_o recreation_n and_o afer_fw-la a_o little_a reflection_n you_o may_v proceed_v to_o those_o that_o be_v more_o serious_a and_o require_v a_o great_a recollection_n for_o such_o i_o esteem_v history_n and_o geography_n for_o which_o i_o will_v have_v you_o begin_v with_o the_o ancient_n in_o their_o own_o tongue_n with_o the_o annotation_n of_o note_a critic_n who_o both_o may_v put_v you_o in_o mind_n and_o satisfy_v you_o in_o difficulty_n which_o you_o have_v not_o otherwise_o expect_v and_o refer_v you_o to_o parallel_v place_n in_o other_o author_n where_o you_o may_v find_v that_o which_o probable_o you_o may_v sometime_o be_v desirous_a of_o some_o thing_n discuss_v more_o large_o which_o in_o your_o present_a author_n be_v more_o brief_o intimate_v which_o it_o will_v be_v very_o beneficial_a to_o read_v immediate_o while_o the_o other_o thing_n be_v more_o fresh_a in_o your_o memory_n and_o when_o you_o be_v so_o far_o skill_v in_o they_o you_o shall_v have_v your_o paper_n book_n by_o you_o to_o note_v and_o compare_v and_o exercise_v your_o own_o conjecture_n concern_v what_o be_v singular_a and_o worthy_a of_o especial_a observation_n or_o such_o as_o will_v more_o exercise_v your_o judgement_n and_o require_v a_o mind_n more_o compose_v and_o serious_a and_o therefore_o afford_v less_o pleasure_n in_o read_v and_o upon_o that_o account_n will_v require_v more_o meditation_n for_o such_o i_o intend_v school-divinity_n for_o which_o i_o think_v it_o be_v well_o you_o allot_v your_o morning-study_n whole_o allow_v only_o some_o time_n before_o dinner_n for_o meditation_n wherein_o also_o i_o will_v have_v you_o not_o only_o exercise_v your_o memory_n in_o reflect_v on_o what_o be_v produce_v by_o your_o author_n but_o also_o your_o judgement_n in_o examine_v what_o mean_n may_v be_v use_v for_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o whole_a controversy_n and_o the_o same_o way_n you_o may_v take_v at_o night_n which_o be_v another_o convenient_a time_n in_o prepare_v material_n for_o your_o morning_n thesis_n according_a to_o the_o prescription_n already_o mention_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o afternoon_n you_o may_v design_n for_o the_o apology_n and_o your_o other_o humane_a study_n and_o i_o think_v it_o very_o commendable_a if_o you_o will_v employ_v the_o praxis_fw-la of_o your_o grammatical_a study_n for_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o that_o you_o will_v with_o they_o together_o with_o your_o devotion_n begin_v and_o conclude_v your_o morning_n and_o evening_n study_n but_o so_o as_o that_o you_o may_v afterward_o draw_v from_o they_o some_o moral_a and_o practical_a observation_n that_o may_v be_v of_o use_n for_o the_o order_n or_o examination_n of_o your_o behaviour_n for_o the_o whole_a day_n and_o the_o same_o advantage_n you_o may_v get_v by_o read_v the_o lesson_n at_o public_a prayer_n in_o your_o greek_a or_o hebrew_n bible_n and_o note_v in_o the_o margin_n with_o black-lead_a the_o unusual_a idiom_n or_o obscure_a passage_n you_o may_v meet_v with_o that_o so_o if_o afterward_o you_o remember_v or_o find_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v contribute_v to_o their_o explication_n in_o your_o other_o study_n you_o may_v know_v whither_o to_o refer_v they_o and_o thus_o i_o think_v i_o have_v go_v through_o all_o the_o particular_n of_o your_o present_a proposal_n both_o how_o to_o order_v your_o study_n to_o divinity_n what_o be_v most_o conduce_v to_o that_o end_n and_o what_o first_o to_o be_v take_v in_o hand_n as_o brief_o as_o be_v possible_a convenient_o though_o i_o confess_v very_o much_o more_o large_o than_o i_o have_v original_o intend_v and_o i_o must_v ingenuous_o acknowledge_v that_o as_o i_o have_v already_o profess_v myself_o willing_a so_o i_o be_o myself_o suspicious_a that_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a that_o i_o be_v correct_v in_o some_o instance_n wherein_o i_o can_v pretend_v to_o any_o considerable_a experience_n i_o believe_v you_o may_v yourself_o easy_o guess_v what_o they_o be_v for_o i_o can_v now_o stay_v to_o enumerate_v they_o particular_o and_o as_o i_o shall_v be_v willing_a myself_o so_o i_o shall_v advise_v you_o to_o consult_v man_n who_o you_o know_v to_o be_v skill_v in_o each_o of_o they_o several_o if_o you_o
