THE editor of the preceding volumes of Jeremy Taylor's works having ceased to reside in Oxford, the care of preparing for the press the Ductor Dubitantium has devolved, at his suggestion, upon the Rev. Alexander Taylor, M.A., Michel Fellow of Queen's college, who had already assisted largely in verifying the author's references. Mr. Eden hopes to be able to edit the last volume (vol. i. of the series) containing the Life, Indexes, and some minor works. His name is retained uniformly on the general title-page of all the volumes, though his share in the present work in particular has been limited to once reading over the sheets in their passage through the press.
