Transcriber’s Note
Internal references to specific articles in this text are linked for ease of navigation. More general references to entire chapters have not been linked.
In the table of contents, the page number for the final section (“Letter to the Right Honourable Edward Howard”) was incorrectly given as p. 459. The section begins at p. [458] and the correction was made.
At [42.17], the word ‘forwardness’ appears. Several lines earlier, ‘frowardness’ is used. The discrepancy is probably a printer’s error. ‘Froward’ is also used elsewhere: ‘froward children, weary of the controlment of their parents’ (p. [457]). Since Hobbes is discussing a specific behavior, the former has been retained as less ambiguous.
