POST-SCRIPT.

IN the Epistle, I direct to know Emphatical words by Capital letters: and speak of be∣ginning them words only with Capitals (except such words as are alway so to begin) and I did intend to do so. But after the Epistle was composed by the Printer, I was disposed to be∣gin many Substantial words also with Capitals, which are not Emphatical. These are in the first 6 sheets containing Instruction and Cor∣rection, and the An to Ob against Correction: especially in the first 3 sheets, to the end of In∣struction by Doct. These words are begun with Capitals, that Men, Women, and Children may take the more notice of such words and things, which are to them of so great concern. And whether you call it a Benefit or a Burden, it is only for the first Edition: for in the next (Deo juvante) I shall take them out, reduce it to the order of the Epistle, and so make it more Eu∣phonical and Gratefull for the Readers pleasure.
