The Order which I shall observe, in setting down the Honour and Corruption of them in General (which Method shall in part be kept in their Particulars) shall be this; first, according to the Antecedents of their Motion and Acts; secondly, according to the Acts themselves; and thirdly, according to the Consequents of them.
The Order which I shall observe, in setting downe the Honour and Corruption of them in Generall (which Method shall in part be kept in their Particulars) shall be this; first, according to the Antecedents of their Motion and Acts; secondly, according to the Acts themselves; and thirdly, according to the Consequents of them.
