This volume contains a collection of remarkable sentences and
sayings as are usual and useful in conversation and business. All
of us forget more than we remember and therefore it was Mr.
Fuller's custom to note down and record whatever he thought or
received from men or books worth preserving. Among other things, he
wrote out apothegms, maxims, proverbs, acute expressions, vulgar
sayings, etc. Having collected more than any Englishman before him,
Fuller ventured to send them forth, to try their fortune among the
people. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced,
some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to read. Old English
text.
