“When he first set about writing his book 'OF THE CHURCH,' his old acquaintance, Dr. Kettle, dissuaded him, telling him that when once he was engaged in controversy he would never live quietly, but be continually troubled with answers and replies. To this Field answered, 'I will so write that they shall have no great mind to answer me;' which proved to be nearly the case, as his main arguments were never refuted.”—CHALMERS. Heylin, in his “Life of Laud,” calls him, “the reverend right learned Dr. Field, whose excellent works will keep his name alive to succeeding ages.” --------------------- SUBSCRIBERS' NAMES RECEIVED BY JOHN BOHN, 17, Henrietta Street, Covent Garden. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transcriber’s Note In the table of contents, the page number for the final section (“Letter to the Right Honourable Edward Howard”) was incorrectly given as p. 459. The section begins at p. 458 and the correction was made. At 42.17, the word ‘forwardness’ appears. Several lines earlier, ‘frowardness’ is used. The discrepancy is probably a printer’s error. ‘Froward’ is also used elsewhere: ‘_froward_ children, weary of the controlment of their parents’ (p. 457). Since Hobbes is discussing a specific behavior, the former has been retained as less ambiguous. The chapter summary for Part II, Chapter II of DE CORPORE POLITICO, on p. 138, misnumbered section 2 as ‘1’. On p. 117, a reference to section 16 of the XIIth chapter of _Human Nature_ is incorrect. The 6th section of that chapter is the obviously correct reference. On p. 201, a reference to section 9 of the VIIth chapter of the same text is also incorrect. The 8th section seems to be the intended reference. Other errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original. 26.21 I take _nosce t[ei/e i]psum_ for a precept Space added. 176.32 Jesus Christ is come in [t]he flesh Added. 183.18 is not only not necessa[a/r]y Replaced. 216.12 a duty of sovere[i]gns Inserted. 248.28 Thus you see the case[ ]put by St. Paul Inserted. 270.22 are necess[s]ary.
