Solomon, though a wise man, (none like him;) yea, though immediately inspired by the Holy Ghost; yet he set all his Logic awork in teachings and writings to the people. For whereas there be three acts or exercises of Logic, 1 Invention; 2 Judgement; 3 Method; and in these three the whole work of Logic is accomplished; Solomon set all these a work to find out a fit matter and words for the instruction of the people.
