Sir,
It was the 21. of January, before your Answer came to my hands; and though my ⟨p. 64⟩[…] ⟨p. 65⟩[…] ⟨p. 66⟩Reply was made ready by me the third instant, yet I have found so great difficulties to get it transcribed, that it was not possible to transmit it to you before now. But I hope hereafter I shall find Scribes more at leisure. I must desire you to excuse what errors you find in the Copy which I send; As also, that being unwilling to make a farther delay, I am enforced to send a Copy which hath in it more interlineations then would otherwise become me to send to a person of your worth. Yet I cannot doubt, but your Candour will pass by all things of this nature. I am Sir,
