the immense Collectanea of Pricæus, Grotius, Raphel, Elsner, Kypke, Wetstein, &c. The labour of this may easily be imagined, when it is considered that the quotations even in Wetstein's New Testament amount, it is said (see Dibd. Introd. vol. I. p. 165.), to a million! The Author was induced to especially attend to this branch of his plan, since the publications in question are rare and expensive, and the persons for whose use the present Work was especially intended, have seldom complete collections of the Greek Classics. The Author's own illustrations of this kind will, in the present Part, be found far more numerous and important. He has also, in this Second Part, used the same diligence in forming glossarial notes on every word and phrase which present the slightest difficulty. These, he trusts, will be found eminently serviceable to the Student: and though this kind of matter admits not of complete originality, yet a comparison of these glossarial notes with the matter found in Lexicographers or Commentators, will show that the Author has chiefly depended upon his own powers and resources.

A most important feature of the present Part is, the introduction of a new version and close paraphrase, by the Author, of most of the sentences of the original here annotated on. In the selection of Rabbinical illustrations the Editor confesses that he has been more sparing, partly because that kind of matter is here less valuable than on the Gospels, and since the nature of the subject-matter admits far less direct elucidation from that quarter; nay, on points which involve doctrine, are of very questionable

utility. No well informed Theologian can be ignorant of the abuse to which this mode of illustration is liable, and to which it has been applied by heterodox Commentators.

As a faithful and firmly attached son of the Church, an Ecclesiæ Anglicana Miles, the Author cannot dissemble his high satisfaction that the extensive researches prosecuted in the present Work do so decidedly tend to confirm the doctrines of his venerable nursing mother, as they are embodied in her articles and liturgy, and her discipline, as contained in her canons. ESTO PERPETUA!

In conclusion, the Author cannot but entreat the Divine blessing on these his labours, that they may be made instrumental to that combination of knowledge with zeal, by which both are eventually purified, and by the union of which alone can Ministers be enabled" rightly to divide the world of truth," or "contend* for the truth once delivered to the Saints." With feelings of the deepest gratitude does he, in thus penning the concluding sentence of so arduous a Work, acknowledge the gracious aid, under various trials, anxieties, and sickness, afforded

* Especially in times like our own, marked by innovating refinements, by restless insubordination, and by that mischievous spirit of dogmatism which draws its strength not even from perverted learning, or ingenious sophistry, but from hardiness of assertion, coarseness of language, and mysticism in doctrine.

† It may not be quite uninteresting to the reader to know that, hurried forward by a scarcely temperate ardour, the Author's exertions so far exceeded his strength that they had nearly cost him his life. For towards the conclusion he was so utterly exhausted, and was seized with such alarming symptoms, as left him but faint hopes of accomplishing the work.

him by that Almighty Being who, "when his heart was in heaviness, was the strength of his confidence; who hath brought his feet out of the mire and clay, and hath set them on a rock, and ordered his goings; and who hath thus put a new song into his mouth, even a thanksgiving unto his God!"

For typographical errors (unavoidable in such a Work) the Author must throw himself on the indulgence of his considerate readers, when he informs them that his great distance from the press prevented him from correcting the proof sheets more than once, and his remoteness from a Post town, which rendered it necessary to employ special messengers, and exposed him to many disappointments, allowed him too short a time for correction. He has now, however, carefully examined the whole, and trusts that the following list (not perhaps longer than might be expected in a work of nearly 4000 closely printed pages of learned matter) includes nearly every error of the least consequence; and he cannot but intreat his readers to use it for the purpose of actual correction.
