And all suited to the meanest capacities, in a plainer method than herefore: being (for ease) reduced into an alphabetical order, and explained in the mother-tongue. And towards the compleating the English part, (which hath been long desired) here are added thousands of words, phrases, proverbs, proper names, and many other useful things mentioned in the preface to the work.
