But how will you deceive their Expectations, and unbecome the Character given you by your Friends, when they shall find the true measure both of your ability and humility drawn by your own Pen in the following Rejoinder?
I have throughly considered your Reply in the Manuscript you sent me, which I hear is now in the Press; and in the following Sheets have given a full, and (I think) a final Answer to whatsoever is material therein. And it so falling out, that my Discourse of Errors was just going under the Press, whilst your Rejoinder was there also, I thought it not convenient to delay my Reply any longer, ⟨p. 169⟩but to have my Antidote in as great readiness as might be to meet it.
One Inconvenience I easily foresee, that the Pages of your Manuscript, which I follow, may not throughout exactly answer to the Print: But every intelligent Reader will easily discern and rectify That, if my Bookseller save him not that trouble, as I have desired him to do.
