Note : — Extract from above ; " It is the modesty of our ingenious Printer that he hath not (in 

 this little interval) been scattering some loose sheets, to amuse the greedy Inquisitors of the times 

 with, since his ready Engine, the Presse, began its motion in this Sphere. Wee expected ere this a 

 Mercttrious Sibeyniciis, or some bellowing noyse of a defeat given Owen-roes Creaghts, should have 

 been ushered in a weekely tribute of two pences, towards the support and encouragement of our 

 honest Artist ; but time having not yet atfoarded seed or maturity for such a birth ; it will conduce 

 equally to our purpose, if we make the subject of most men's (and too many women's) discourse the 

 Argument of raysing a little advantage to the Printer, with a designe of no disprofit to the Reader." 



There are two other allusions in the same Tract to the Press. The author of the Tract invites 

 his opponent to reply to him through the Press. He also refers to " two letters" that he had 

 heard were in the Press.
