Hereas I have frequently declared, according to the full intention of my heart, that I hould be always ready to correct any mitakes, which I have inadvertently fallen into, through the coure of thee papers, I think my elf obliged to acknowledge, that I have received intelligence from a gentleman, whoe veracity I can never ditrut, that I gave too much credit to a letter dated from Wadham college, concerning the publick lecturers at Oxford, there being two or three of thoe gentlemen, beides thoe whom I have mentioned, who ought to be excepted out of the general cenure. As I received this information too late to make thee exceptions in their proper places, I mut deire the reader to accept of this general acknowledgement and apology, together with my promie, that if the publick continue their favour o far as to bring thee heets to a third impreion, I will not only correct thoe mitakes, but all others, of which I hall be duly appriz'd; it being my determined reolution not to perit in any known errors, but to pare away every thing of that nature, and reduce thee volumes to a eries of the mot incontetable Truths.
