Note: Entries 3-6 on BP 2, fol. 186 are written in the left margin, with the text . They may have been intended for incorporation in the same way up as the longer text in the body of the page. That, but if so it is not clear where they are to be inserted and there are no sigla or keys linking them to the longer text. However, the marginal text beginning 'expecting to be called to account their...Readers' does appear to be part of the longer text and we have incorporated it there.
Note: Square bracket following 'conducive to it' is author's own

Note: The aphorisms on BP 36, fol. 86v appear on the verso of a folio whose recto is titled 'Material & Addenda Design'd towards the Structure & compleating of Treatises already begun or written January the 25th 1649/50', which is transcribed in Works, xiv, 329. Fol. 86v is endorsed: by Henry Miles 'Heads or titles of Tracts written or to be writ so early as 1648/9', followed by the note 'A meere fine Gentleman', which refers to another text which Miles placed with this manuscript and which now appears in Works, xiii, 139-40. This in turn is followed by a piece of Miles's shorthand which reads, 'worn, not to be printed'.
