Excerpt from The Works of the Most Reverend Father in God, John Bramhall, D.D, Vol. 1: Sometime Lord Archbishop of Armagh, Primate and Metropolitan of All Ireland; With a Life of the Author, and a Collection of His Letters The quotations in the text of the treatises themselves, where they are verbally exact or nearly so, are marked with double commas; where such exactness does not exist, with single commas. The orthography (with the exception of a few words d, where it seemed worth while to preserve a peculiar or characteristic mode of spelling) has been throughout modernised (excepting of course in the Letters, mentioned below); as there appeared to be little in it in general either to mark the style of the author or to illustrate the history of the language.
