NOMENCLATURE
I must entreat the Reader to take notice of one distinction:
in thatthose parts which concerns the exposition
of the principles, he will find some words remote
from common use: for whose new Ideas in some
measure new are started in a Science, those Ideas
wil often require must have words which were not common before
to express them: but in those parts which are designed
for samples of those in work rules where efficacy depends entirely
upon its being understood by the lowest populace every expression which it is supposed can appear strange
to them is endevoredexcluded with an anxiety that it is hoped
will be found to be not altogether unsuccessful.
A work of this kind, consists in fact of two partsworks, which
though moving all along in concurring with each
other, are very different differ widely and the class of the readers they were doing and for in the nature of their composition:
The one is for the Men of this sort, the
other for the ignorant multitude: then one for a select
few: the other for all alike. The first indeed, like
every other composition, will be the better in proportion
because like all others
the more readers it is
fit for, the more extensive
its utility. as hard words & difficulties of every kind can be castavoided
out of in it: but the other if they are not, is stark ght.
