matter_n of_o request_n a_o man_n have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o any_o unless_o such_o as_o he_o make_v mere_o for_o his_o own_o peculiar_a benefit_n to_o those_o from_o who_o in_o

of_o they_o and_o for_o speak_v advantageous_o of_o a_o man_n self_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v a_o most_o ridiculous_a and_o unblamable_a pride_n when_o he_o speak_v false_a thing_n of_o himself_o and_o it_o be_v even_o a_o contemptible_a vanity_n too_o when_o he_o speak_v only_a truth_n mere_o out_o of_o ostentation_n and_o so_o that_o no_o good_a accrue_v to_o any_o one_o thereby_o but_o when_o these_o thing_n so_o much_o concern_v other_o man_n to_o know_v it_o be_v most_o certain_a they_o can_v be_v conceal_v but_o out_o of_o a_o vicious_a humility_n which_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o

the_o thing_n you_o have_v already_o give_v the_o important_a truth_n you_o have_v lay_v down_o in_o your_o book_n be_v worth_a incomparable_o much_o more_o than_o any_o thing_n you_o can_v ask_v for_o this_o purpose_n you_o may_v also_o say_v that_o your_o work_n speak_v enough_o and_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o add_v promise_n and_o brag_n which_o be_v the_o merchandise_n of_o juggle_a mountebank_n seem_v not_o become_v a_o man_n of_o honour_n who_o only_o search_v after_o truth_n but_o mountebank_n be_v not_o blame-worthy_a for_o talk_v high_a and_o well_o of_o themselves_o but_o for_o speak_v untruth_n and_o thing_n they_o can_v make_v good_a whereas_o those_o which_o i_o urge_v you_o shall_v speak_v of_o yourself_o be_v so_o true_a and_o so_o manifest_o prove_v in_o your_o

design_n i_o will_v advise_v you_o to_o because_o every_o one_o be_v not_o able_a to_o read_v they_o and_o they_o who_o manage_v the_o public_a affair_n can_v scarce_o have_v any_o leisure_n to_o do_v it_o it_o may_v be_v some_o who_o have_v read_v they_o tell_v they_o of_o it_o but_o whatsoever_o a_o man_n say_v to_o they_o of_o it_o the_o little_a coil_n they_o know_v you_o keep_v and_o the_o too_o great_a modesty_n you_o have_v ever_o observe_v in_o speak_v of_o yourself_o make_v they_o not_o take_v any_o great_a notice_n thereof_o and_o indeed_o because_o it_o a_o usual_a thing_n among_o they_o to_o bestow_v the_o high_a term_n imaginable_a on_o the_o commendation_n of_o very_a indifferent_a man_n they_o be_v not_o apt_a to_o receive_v the_o immense_a praise_n bestow_v on_o you_o by_o those_o who_o know_v you_o for_o exact_a truth_n whereas_o when_o any_o man_n speak_v of_o himself_o extraordinary_o they_o harken_v to_o he_o with_o more_o attention_n especial_o if_o he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o good_a birth_n and_o they_o know_v he_o to_o be_v neither_o by_o nature_n nor_o his_o rank_n likely_a to_o act_v the_o mountebank_n and_o because_o he_o will_v become_v ridiculous_a if_o he_o shall_v use_v hyperbole_n on_o such_o a_o occasion_n his_o word_n be_v take_v in_o their_o true_a sense_n and_o they_o who_o will_v not_o believe_v they_o be_v incite_v at_o least_o by_o their_o curiosity_n or_o jealousy_n to_o examine_v the_o truth_n of_o they_o wherefore_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a and_o the_o public_a be_v much_o concern_v in_o know_v that_o no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o yourself_o at_o least_o who_o writing_n we_o have_v ever_o discover_v the_o true_a principle_n and_o understand_v the_o first_o cause_n of_o whatever_o be_v produce_v in_o nature_n and_o that_o have_v already_o give_v a_o account_n by_o these_o principle_n of_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v most_o visible_a and_o frequent_o observe_v in_o the_o world_n you_o need_v only_o some_o particular_a observation_n to_o find_v out_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o reason_n of_o whatsoever_o may_v be_v useful_a to_o man_n in_o this_o life_n and_o so_o give_v we_o a_o complete_a knowledge_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o all_o mineral_n the_o virtue_n of_o all_o plant_n the_o property_n of_o animal_n and_o general_o all_o that_o may_v be_v beneficial_a to_o physic_n or_o other_o art_n and_o last_o that_o these_o particular_a observation_n not_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v all_o make_v in_o a_o small_a time_n without_o great_a expense_n all_o people_n of_o the_o earth_n ought_v emulous_o to_o contribute_v thereunto_o as_o to_o the_o most_o important_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n wherein_o they_o have_v all_o a_o equal_a interest_n this_o be_v i_o say_v most_o certain_a to_o be_v sufficient_o prove_v by_o your_o work_n already_o print_v you_o shall_v talk_v so_o loud_o of_o it_o publish_v it_o with_o so_o much_o care_n and_o put_v it_o so_o punctual_o in_o all_o the_o

and_o i_o will_v wish_v you_o chief_o to_o clear_v three_o thing_n to_o the_o world_n first_o that_o there_o be_v a_o numerous_a company_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v find_v out_o in_o physics_n that_o

have_v to_o make_v experiment_n the_o more_o of_o they_o you_o can_v find_v out_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o first_o because_o most_o man_n think_v there_o can_v nothing_o

what_o they_o be_v good_a for_o now_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o prove_v that_o the_o too_o great_a reverence_n bear_v to_o antiquity_n be_v a_o error_n extreme_o prejudicial_a to_o the_o advancement_n of_o science_n for_o it_o be_v see_v that_o the_o savage_a people_n of_o america_n and_o many_o other_o who_o inhabit_v place_n less_o remote_a have_v many_o less_o convenience_n of_o life_n than_o we_o and_o yet_o their_o original_n be_v as_o ancient_a as_o we_o so_o that_o they_o have_v as_o much_o reason_n as_o we_o to_o say_v that_o they_o be_v satisfy_v with_o the_o wisdom_n of_o their_o father_n and_o that_o they_o believe_v no_o man_n can_v teach_v they_o better_o than_o what_o have_v be_v know_v and_o practise_v among_o they_o from_o all_o antiquity_n and_o this_o opinion_n be_v so_o prejudicial_a that_o till_o it_o be_v reject_v it_o be_v impossible_a any_o new_a learning_n can_v be_v acquire_v beside_o experience_n show_v that_o the_o people_n who_o mind_n it_o be_v deep_a

that_o we_o be_v far_o from_o know_v all_o we_o be_v capable_a of_o which_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o many_o exceed_a prositable_a invention_n as_o the_o use_n of_o the_o compass_n the_o art_n of_o

there_o be_v nothing_o wherein_o our_o necessity_n of_o acquire_v new_a knowledge_n be_v more_o apparent_a than_o in_o physic_n for_o although_o no_o man_n doubt_n that_o god_n have_v furnish_v this_o

study_n of_o king_n and_o sage_n yet_o experience_n show_v we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o have_v it_o whole_o that_o ofttimes_o a_o man_n be_v chain_v to_o his_o bed_n by_o small_a disease_n which_o the_o most_o learned_a physician_n understand_v not_o and_o only_o make_v they_o rage_v more_o by_o their_o remedy_n when_o they_o undertake_v to_o expel_v they_o wherein_o the_o defect_n of_o their_o art_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o persect_v it_o be_v so_o evident_a that_o for_o those_o who_o understand_v not_o what_o the_o meaning_n of_o physics_n be_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v the_o science_n which_o shall_v teach_v so_o perfect_o to_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n and_o all_o thing_n that_o may_v serve_v he_o for_o nutriment_n or_o remedy_n that_o
