Excerpt from Secretum Secretorum, Cum Glossiset Notulis: Tractatus Brevis Et Utilis Ad Declarandum Quedam Obscure Dicta; Fratis Rogeri
The issue of this series has been interrupted by the war, and this volume has been interpolated, for 'several reasons; somewhat out of its proper place in the order of Bacon's unpublished work, partly out of a consideration of the great importance of the text on which he comments, and partly on account of its influence on his whole work. Mediaeval students will be glad to learn that the publication of the whole of Bacon's work now seems assured.
