FOOTNOTES:
1. Difficulties as to copyright prevented this second volume from being published.—See EDITOR'S PREFACE.
2. A good copy of this rare volume with the wood-cuts, having the reverse blank, in the editor's possession, and a fine copy, without the cuts, at Mr. Pickering's, agree as to the date of 1680. It is misplaced in this chronological table; but the date shows that it was not intended as a third part of the Pilgrim's Progress; the second part of which was not published for four years after the life of Badman.—Ed.
3. These MSS., although diligently sought, cannot be found.
4. This was published in a separate pocket volume by C. Doe, 1698.
5. Published from Mr. Bunyan's MS, 1765.
6. As doth appear by his book of his conversion, intitled, Grace Abounding, &c.
7. As in his book intitled, Grace Abounding, s. 319.
8. As he says in his Epistle to his Confession of Faith.
9. Alluding to the portrait published as a frontispiece to the folio volume, 1692.—Ed.
10. The Index accompanying the first folio.—Ed.
11. This is as originally printed. Mr. Doe means, he had not time to mark in the manuscript such words as the printer should put in black-letter.—Ed.
12. The table to which Charles Doe here refers is only to twenty of Mr. Bunyan's books. It is diffuse, and badly arranged. The Index given with this first complete edition of all the admirable works of our great pilgrim forefather, is entirely new. It is the result of a careful reading of every treatise, extracting a notice of such tings as the editor conceived to be most deeply interesting. These extracts were then arranged, in order to furnish a useful index to all the works of Bunyan. It has been attended with very great labour, and some delay to the publication; but no sacrifice is too great, in order to render Bunyan's works as complete as possible.
