to the diligent Reader.
Eare Chriftian Reader, to the intent that thou migflteft
the better enioy the benefit of thefe notes or expoiuions
vpon the New Teftament: I thought it not amifle to de-
clare vnto thee the vfe of the fame. And firft, forafmuch as
the quotations or citing of* places ofthe Scriptures in the
margent which dired to other places,conteining like phrafe
or fence , haue bene fo placed that none without great la-
,

bour could find out the text alledged, 1 haue made thefe fix feuerall figures or
marks ,**•"- «* , and haue fet themafwel in the margent as in the text, fo that
thou mayeft eafijy gnde that which thou defireft. For example, in the firft
worde of the firft Chapter ofMatthew is placed this firft mark'e-^ lookeout :

the like marke in the margent , and there thou fhaltfinde Lukei-^i. which
place agreeth to this of Matthew : and fo likewife thou flialt finde in the
refidue. But if many quotations belong to one place, word, or fentence the ,

firft is onely marked, and thofe that follow vnmarked, appertaine to the fame.

And if it fail out that there be more then fixe diredions in one columne, then
is the firft repeated againe , and the refidue following in order as at the begin-

ning : asitappeareth in the firft calumne of Matthew , where both in the text
and margent alfo, they are all two times fet do wne, and the foure firft repeated
againe.
The Notes which are dire<fled by figures of Arithmeticke as t. 2. 3.4. &c. ,

thorowout the Euangelifts and Ads, declare the effed: or (umme of the
dodrine conteined betweene one of the fayd figures and the next that fol-,

lowcth as forexample, from the figure i. in the firft lineandfiift worde of


:

Matthew vnto the figure 2 in the 18 ^. ofthe fame chapter, the dodrine there
gathered is fet downe in the margent in this fort i lefns catne ofaAbrahjim of
:

ihe tribe of luda^ andoftheflocke ofDamdas Godpromifed. And in the Epiftles

in like fort they declare the meihode and ane which the Apoftles vfe and how ,

euery argument or reafondependeth one vpon another: thefe figures are be-
gunne againe at the beginning of euery Chapter.
Laftly the Notes which goe by order of the letters of the Alphabet placed
,

in the text, with the like anlwering vnto them in the margent,ferue to expound

and Ijghten the darke wordes and phrafesimmediatly following them. As in


the firft line and fecond worde the letter a , being referred vnto a diredly

vnto :^. and fo beginning againe with <«, if there be fo many Notes that they
do exceede in number the letters of one Alphabet. 1 his haue 1 faithfully done
for thy coramoditie , reape thou the fruit, and giue the prayfe to God.
