Excerpt from The History of the Worthies of England, Vol. 1 of 2: Endeavoured by Thomas Fuller, D. D.; First Printed in 1662With respect to errors, let the candid Reader consider and make allowance for the novel and the arduous task in which our Author was engaged; the difficulty of which can only be appreciated by those who have devoted themselves to similar researches. The present Editor knows, by long experience, that the supplying of a single date will not unfrequently lead to the turning over many a volume, and occupy no inconsiderable portion of time and labour; and that, after all, one wrong date is more readily observed, than an hundred that have been corrected with the severest toil.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
