Sinossi

Excerpt from The Mathematical and Philosophical Works of the Right Rev. John Wilkins, Late Lord Bishop of Chister, Vol. 1 of 2: To Which Is Prefixed the Author's Life, and an Account of His Works

He treated sometimes on matters that did not properly belong to his profession; but always with a design to' make men wiser and better; which was his chief end in promoting universal know ledge, and one of the main reasons for his entering into the royal society. His virtues and graces were very uncommon; at least as to that degree of them to which he attained: his prudence was very remarkable, and seldom failed him; but he was so Openhearted and sincere himself, that he was ready (except he knew some cause to the contrary) to think other men to be so too; by.which he was sometimes imposed on.
