Synopsis
Excerpt from A Practical Catechism
The edition which professes to be the second, is dated London, 1646, and has the writer's name on the title-page and subscribed to the epistle to the reader. The printing of this volume had proceeded as far as the last sheet of the fourth book, before any communication took place between the author, and the bookseller who published it, who added a postscript of the printer explaining that the additions came too late to be inserted in the text, and that he had re medied the difficulty in the best way he could by adding two new books on the Creed and Sacraments at the end; by inserting the matter on just dealing in its due place in the last sheet of the fourth book, and including other particulars in an appendix. This edition contains also an index and a table of contents, both of which refer only to the first four books. Besides the additions in the appendix are some 'less remarkable alterations' which occupy two additional pages, which happen in one instance to anticipate an objec tion made to a passage in the Catechism by Cheynell, who in his haste had forgotten to notice these additional altera tions.
