POSTSCRIPT

SINC

INCE the writing of the foregoing Supplement, I have understood that our Friend Thomas Ellwood, after he had finished and publifhed his Davideis, fignified, That he had but one Thing more that lay upon his Mind; and that was, to add fomething to his Journal, or Account of his Life; which was chiefly to give an Account Gg 4

of his Books and Writings: Which, as it fhews he had not done it, or finished it before, and 'tis to be doubted he did not after (not living long after that) and fo no more to be expected (more's the Pity) from his own Hand. So it thews what his Defign was, as to what he intended to have added to it, had he lived to perform it, or had not Death prevented him. So that the forefaid Supplement feems (in fome Sort at least) to answer his own Intention, though far fhort, as was faid, of what his own Hand could have done; yet fo far as it does any Way anfwer his Mind, I am therein glad that I have done any Service to his Memory, or the Truth in that refpect, having endeavoured to reprefent Things according to his own Mind, and to fpeak of him and Things as probably he would have done if he had been living, and hope the Reader will accept it the better. To whom therefore I recommend it, as giving at least, a fair Character of the Books he writ, and Controverfies he managed, both published and unpublished; which I hope will be no Differvice (but Service) to the Truth, as it is intended in the Fear of God: To whofe Honour, and the Service of His Truth, I defire with great Sinceritv, to dedicate the Remainder of my Days, and rest

A Friend to all Men.
