PREFATORY NOTE ΤΟ SECOND EDITION. HE Author is grateful for the kind interest with THE which the First Edition of this Work has been received, and is encouraged by having learned that his Exposition has, in some instances, proved satisfactory to students who were perplexed by recent theories and speculations. The Second Edition has been carefully revised, and such references as seemed necessary have been made to important works which have been published since the First Edition was issued. |
