THE French Copy of this Book is so very uncorrrectly Printed, that those who took Care of this Translation, found it necessary in great Numbers of Places to examine it by those Ori∣ginal Books which were quoted or epitomized: So that though very many Faults were amended in the Body of this Translation, yet upon 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Review of the Work since it came from the Press. Se∣veral others were observed, which are here set by themselves, lest they should be imputed to the Printer's Carelessness.

Those likewise who are acquainted with the French Language, know what a Liberty the French Writers take in altering of Proper Names, and in bringing them to the Genius of their own Tongue: For which Reason they will easily pardon some Mistakes of that kind in so long and so various a Work as this. However, lest any should think that this has been neglected, which might occasion Confu∣sion, when the same Persons Names otherwise turned occurr in other Books, the following Catalogue was drawn up; in which those Names to which no Page is set, are several times to be met with, whereas the others are hardly ever mistaken any where else.
