[Pg 527]

It is intended to include in the Series every Christian writing and
document produced before the Nicene Council, whether in Greek, Latin,
Syriac, Arabic, AEthiopic, or in any other language. The list includes a
number of works, some portions of which are generally believed to have
been written after the Council of Nice; but as other portions were, or
may have been, written before that time, it has been thought the safer
course to give them fully. Only those works which are now allowed on
every hand to have been written after the Nicene Council, will be
excluded.

It is believed that the writings comprised in the above Synopsis will
form about sixteen or eighteen Volumes, in demy octavo, of a size
similar to the Publishers' Foreign Theological Library; and the Series
will be published at the same rate to Subscribers, namely--

FOUR VOLUMES for ONE GUINEA.

Each work will have a separate Index; and a very complete Index to the
whole Series will be published in a separate Volume, especial care
being taken hi its compilation.

The Publishers' arrangements are such, that the publication, once
commenced, will proceed very rapidly; so that, whilst no Subscriber
will be required to take the work more rapidly than four Volumes
annually, it is highly probable that the whole may be finished at a
much earlier period, for the convenience of those who may desire to
have their sets completed. The Volumes will be handsomely bound in
cloth, with red edges; but Subscribers may have them with uncut edges,
by intimating their wish with their order.

They will be greatly obliged by intending Subscribers filling up the
accompanying Slip, and returning it to them speedily, as this will very
much facilitate their arrangements.
