1732. 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.
