POSTCRIPT.

BEcause some Practises and Customs men∣tioned in the precedent Treatise, were not from the first Plantation of Christianity, but were afterwards introduced; and others might not be universal, but only followed in some particular Churches, it will not be unne∣cessary to add a Table of the Names, Age, and Country of those Fathers, and of their Con∣temporaries, who have been cited by us, that so we may guess at the time when such Cu∣stoms were brought in, and know the Places where they were chiefly practised.
