Prelude.
My aim is all along The nature of the enterprise required me to pursue as near as
may be, the leading Ideas of the original: one
part of my task was therefore to find them out:
a matter which to speak plain I have not always found so
easy.
["That the accuracy of the execution is not answerable
to the number of the words"]
Short as the proposition is itself, it cannot be expected
that the proof of it should come within
a small compass.

speech has a certain signification in Laws language
but it is not every thing thatwhich has a certain
++ v.1 Morillet 348.signification in Law that has a certain
signification in common speech.+
in this collateral
disquisitions design, or at least my expectation+ being is
much less too. more to put others more able into a after
train of making [remarks] observation that may
be decisive [upon the several topics to which
as shall merit that
distinctionthey apply] than to make [offer] produce myself
any such observationsmyself [as shall be so.]
